Researchers Use Light Waves to Study Topological Materials
So-called “topological materials” produce electron states that can be useful, but it is difficult to identify these materials and their associated electronic states. To identify these “topological materials,” scientists from TU Wien and the University of Science and Technology of China created a “crystal” made of light waves.

Using Light to Stop Itch Could Provide Relief From Skin Diseases
Scientists used NIR light to activate a phototoxic agent that selectively targets itch-sensing cells, which are located in the upper surface of the skin. When the agent is injected into a mouse’s affected skin area and the area is illuminated with the NIR light, the itch-sensing cells withdraw from the skin.

WEBINAR | Spectroscopic Reference Data for Hot Gases
DRS Daylight Solutions
There exists a marked lack of experimental absorption spectra for gaseous molecules at high temperatures and high pressures. Gases in these high-enthalpy thermodynamic states are present in a wide range of natural and man-made environments, such as cool stars, exoplanets, plasmas, explosions, flames, volcanoes, forest...

SiPM and SPAD: Emerging Applications for Single-Photon Detection
Thu, Jan 17, 2019 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM EST
This webinar, presented by Hamamatsu Corporation, will provide a thorough overview of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) and single-photon avalanche photodiodes (SPADs) for low-light level photodetection. Compared to photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), SiPMs and SPADs are smaller, more durable, and more energy efficient. They also offer better immunity to magnetic fields and ambient light than PMTs. By attending this webinar, you will gain a better understanding of SiPM and SPAD technology, so you can determine whether it is the right choice for you.
