Medicine & TechnologyEmbedding nanodiamonds in polymeric microstructures can advance biological research and advance computing. Find out more about it in this article.
A team of scientists has demonstrated precise control of the size and concentration of gold nanoparticles in tellurite glass to make it suitable for photonics. Learn more about it in this article.
Physicists discovered a new approach for mass manufacturing of photonic sensors at the quantum limit. Find out how this may help in practical applications.
Chalcogenide glasses are widely used in electronics as well as near- and mid-infrared photonics. Electrical engineers found that their use can be extended to visible and ultraviolet applications by changing their physical shape.
A new, specially-fabricated magnetic material developed at Trinity College Dublin in Ireland has shown to be the fastest magnetic switch to date, breaking records in the process.
In the rapidly-growing market for augmented reality/ virtual reality (AR/VR) entertainment, glasses are being driven towards being more compact and easy to wear. New technology could mean a step away from the bulky, bug-eyed goggles we currently have.
University of Utah engineers have taken a big step toward computing at the speed of light. Their research will help create the next generation of computers and mobile devices-devices that will be capable of speeds millions of times faster than machines are now.
