What is Quantum Tunnelling?


Quantum tunnelling is a quantum mechanical topic in which subatomic particles probability disappears from one side of potential barriers and appears on other side without any probability current flow inside the barrier. In this effect particles have a finite probability of crossing an energy barrier. Tunneling occur in quantum mechanics when electron pass through the barrier which they possibly cannot pass. Its occur because of significant solution of Schrodinger Equation.


Applications of Quantum Tunnelling

Quantum tunnelling has its uses in Physics. Its uses are in nuclear fission, quantum computing, tunnel diode and scanning tunnelling microscope. Radioactive decay and the behavior of semiconductors and superconductors are also related applications of Quantum Tunnelling. 

How Quantum Tunnelling happens?

Lets get the example of throwing ball. Suppose you throw a ball above a wall. What will happen ? There are two possibilities if ball have enough energy to pass the hill it will go other side or come back down. But in quantum physics things are different.Even if the particles not have energy to pass the barriers it will appear other side. If the particles confront the energy barrier this changes the wave function, which start the decay inside the barrier. This helps to pass the particles.

SCADA Network

By
So welcome to my blog. In this post I am gonna write about SCADA network. This actually come to my mind because of web show named Mr. Robot. The show is awesome if you love hacking believe me you will enjoy the series. So basically the SCADA ( Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ) is a control system architecture comprising computers, networked data communications and graphical user interface for high level process supervisory management, while also comprising other peripheral devices like programmable logic controllers and discrete proportional-integral-derivative controllers to interface with process plant or machinery. SCADA networks used for monitoring and controlling the  industry like  telecommunication, water plant, etc. It is one of the most commonly used industrial control system, in spite of concerns about SCADA system being vulnerable to cyberattack.  This network is used for gathering info about the system, transferring that info to central site, alerting...

NVIDIA Tesla V100 - First Tensor Core GPU

By
  8x NVIDIA Tesla V100 32GB Server As we all know NVIDIA processor are so famous now a days. It give a perfect gaming performance and people used it worldwide. The thing is that it is not only use in personal computer but also at data center, where so many super computer are present for providing services. So, NVIDIA Tesla V100 is a first tensor core GPU. It is especially built to focus on AI, High Performance Computing ( HPC ) and graphics. It is powered by NVIDIA Volta Architecture. It comes with configuration 16 and 32GB and have a performance up to 100 CPUs in single GPU. A single server node with V100 GPUs can replace 60 CPUs nodes. DATA CENTER GPUs Image © NVIDIA NVIDIA V100 for NVLINK  Performance with NVIDIA GPU Boost for double precision is  7.8 teraflops and single precision is 15.7 teraflops. Deep learning performance boost is 125 teraflops. Interconnect bandwidth with bidirectional is 300 GB/s. It have memory capacity of 32/16 GB HBM2 with bandwidth 900GB/s. I...

The Amazing Vantablack Material...!!

By
Vantablack is a material developed by Surrey NanoSystems in the United Kingdom and is one of the darkest substances known, absorbing up to 99.96% of visible light (at 663 nm if the light is perpendicular to the material).The name is a compound of the acronym VANTA (vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays) and the color black. Vantablack is not actually a color pigment or a paint, but a coating of carbon nanotubes. These have the property of absorbing incident light almost completely. Against a deep black background, objects coated in Vantablack material seem to disappear, as the perception of spatial depth is lost. This is because the human eye perceives shapes coated in Vantablack to be two-dimensional. IUPAC Name is Activated carbon high density skeleton. Other names are Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), Vantablack S-VIS and Vantablack S-IR. It is insoluble in water. When light strikes Vantablack, instead of bouncing off, it becomes trapped and is continually deflected amo...
