Gaining Nanoscale Control over Quantum Systems
Gaining Nanoscale Control over Quantum Systems
Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and Vanderbilt University have developed methods to help control the leaky, dissipative behavior inherent in quantum systems and materials. To do so, they examined the quantum nature of nanostructures. ORNL researchers had previously explored the need for precise control over nanoscale energy transfer to enable long-lived entanglement.

Microsensor Could Help Individualize Dialysis Treatment
Microsensor Could Help Individualize Dialysis Treatment
A new microsensor could make it possible to directly monitor and adjust the composition of kidney dialysis fluid (dialysate) — an important step toward customizing dialysis to the individual patient. The sensor provides a way to monitor the salt concentrations in dialysate so that concentrations can be continuously adjusted.

Radiant Vision Systems, Test & Measurement - AR/VR Lens: Measure Displays in Headset AR/VR Lens: Measure Displays in Headset

Radiant Vision Systems, Test & Measurement
Displays viewed near to the eye, such as those in AR/VR devices, create immersive virtual experiences. However, as display images are magnified to fill a user’s field of view, display defects are also magnified. Issues with uniformity of brightness and color, dead pixels, line defects, cloudiness, and image position become more evident to the user whose eyes are only centimeters away from display screens.

Cosmic Lens Helps Hubble Capture Image of Most Distant Star Ever Seen
Gravitational lensing — the bending of light by massive galaxy clusters in the line of sight — has occurred during a rare cosmic alignment, magnifying a star more than 2,000 times. The phenomenon allowed astronomers to capture an image of a star 9 billion light years from Earth.
