Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have demonstrated that liquids embedded with nanoparticles show enhanced performance and stability when exposed to electric fields. The finding could lead to new types of miniature camera lenses, cell phone displays, and other microscale fluidic devices.
Plants trees and algae do it. Even some bacteria and moss do it, but scientists have had a difficult time developing methods to turn sunlight into useful fuel. Now, Penn State researchers have a proof-of-concept device that can split water and produce recoverable hydrogen.
The Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition/National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC) is the premier meeting where experts from industry and academia intersect and share their results, experiences, and insights on the future of electronic and wireless communication and the optical technologies that will enable it.
Zygo Corporation today announced its next-generation of leading 3D Optical Profilers, the NewView 7000-series. These products are designed for rapid, precise, and quantitative surface metrology for the production and scientific research markets.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of Materials Markets for Thin-Film and Organic Photovoltaics to their offering.
Forty years ago, mathematician Mark Kac asked the theoretical question, "Can one hear the shape of a drum?"
Markets for displays, signage, lighting, RFID tags, sensors, solar panels, batteries and other products manufactured using printing technology will reach $30.1 billion by 2015 according to a new report from NanoMarkets.
Corning Incorporated today announced that Verizon Communications Inc. has purchased Corning's ClearCurve rugged drop cable solution as part of the telecommunications company's effort to roll out its FiOS services.
In a study that could lay the foundation for mass-produced single-molecule sensors, physicists and engineers at Rice University have demonstrated a means of simultaneously making optical and electronic measurements of the same molecule.
One of the immediate applications of carbon nanotubes (CNT) is as an additive to polymers to create electrically conducting plastics-a relatively low CNT concentration can dramatically change the polymer's electrical conductivity by orders of magnitude, from an insulator to a conductor.
