LITTLE FALLS, N.J., May 26 -- mPhase Technologies Inc. and Bell Labs, the research and development arm of Lucent Technologies, announced they have produced the first core components of a sensor package, technically referred to as a magnetometer, that is predicted to be up to 1000 times more sensitive than commercially available uncooled sensors used in metal detectors. The mPhase-Bell Labs collaboration on magnetometers is an outgrowth of a year-old codevelopment agreement centered on a nanotechnology-based power cell that may serve as a power source for the magnetometers and other...Read full articleRelated content from Photonics MediaArticlesDeep Learning-Based Method Guards Against Chip TamperingThe $75 billion counterfeit chip market jeopardizes the safety and security of multiple sectors that depend on semiconductor technologies, including aviation, communication, quantum computing,...Photonics Spectra December 2024 IssueUniversity of Twente Opens Bioimaging Center: Week in Brief: 03/31/23The University of Twente opened its BioImaging Centre, which serves as the core facility for microscopy at the university’s Technical Medical Centre.
