The University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGARF) and the University of Puerto Rico have granted an international, non-exclusive license for a portfolio of glow-in-the-dark pigments that can be designed to emit light in any color of the visible spectrum for nearly a day. Performance Indicator, LLC, of Lowell, Mass., acquired the license.
CERAM, the materials technology consultancy, is pleased to announce that it has produced a mini version of its CCSII Colour Standards - CCSII Mini Colour Standards. The new format consists of 1cm square wafers of the twelve CCSII Colours plus a Black and a White Standard, embedded in a protective assembly that holds them in an area that is the size of a credit card.
Now, a research team led by Makoto Fujita from the University of Tokyo and Tahei Tahara from the RIKEN Advanced Science Institute has found a simple way to mimic the initial stage of photosynthesis by mechanically trapping a guest molecule inside a cage structure.
A new centre for doctoral training at UCL is preparing to train the next generation of experts in the growing science of photonics. Just as electronics uses electrons to perform different functions, photonics combines electronics with the control of photons - elementary 'packages' of light - to perform similar or more advanced functions.
The prestigious Russian Academy of Sciences has formally elected Clemson University distinguished visiting professor in materials science and engineering Roger Stolen as a foreign member. Alexander D. Nekipelov, vice president of the Russian Academy of Sciences, presented Stolen with his award at a Moscow ceremony.
According to a new market research report, 'Global Silicon Photonics Market, 2009 - 2014, published by MarketsandMarkets, the total global silicon photonics product market is expected to be worth US$1.95 billion by 2014, and the U.S. market will account for nearly 52.9% of the total revenues.
Navitar Inc., a manufacturer of precision optical and opto-electronic systems, introduced today their new 50 mm large format machine vision lens ideal for use with full frame 11 and 16 mega pixel sensors.
A team of Brookhaven and Argonne National Laboratory researchers has demonstrated a reliable path for sculpting an intricate x-ray focusing lens out of diamond. Their technique, could prove extremely valuable in the study of nanomaterials at future synchrotron light sources.
Using a composite metamaterial to deliver a complex set of instructions to a beam of light, Boston College physicists have created a device to guide electromagnetic waves around objects such as the corner of a building or the profile of the eastern seaboard.
John Spence, a physicist at Arizona State University, is a longtime user of the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where he has contributed to major advances in lensless imaging. It's a particularly apt propensity for someone who works with x-rays, since they can't be focused with ordinary lenses.
