Research & Technology News
Quantum Leap for Phonon Lasers
COLLEGE PARK, Md., March 1, 2010 – Physicists have taken major steps forward in the development of practical phonon lasers, which emit sound in much the same way that optical lasers emit light. The development s...
$11M Grants
Feb 28, 2010 — The Australian Solar Institute (ASI) will provide $11 million to help fund five research and development projects that will support and accelerate the growth of Australia’s solar technology sector. ASI is part of the government’s $4.5 billion Clean...
Cold atoms + lasers = synthetic magnetic field
GAITHERSBURG, Md. – Thanks to lasers, researchers have persuaded ultracold, neutral atoms to do something new: respond as if they were charged particles to a magnetic field that isn’t there. This synthetic magnetic field will help scientists create new states of matter...
Graphene: The rising star in Raman spectroscopy
BEIJING – With its numerous appealing qualities, including biocompatibility, chemical inertness and abundance, graphene has long been a popular metal among chemists and physicists alike. Thanks to these properties, it has found its way into new applications...
New system lets world monitor California forest fires
RENO, Nev. – When wildfires forced a group of Northern California students from their homes last year, they decided to work to keep the same thing from happening to others. Ranging in age from 10 to 13 years old, the grade-schoolers came up with the idea...
NIR spectroscopy to predict pill quality
BALTIMORE – The quality-testing process for pharmaceuticals raises drug costs, according to pharmacy professor Stephen Hoag, but he says that evaluation with near-infrared spectroscopy could help lower those costs. “The drug industry used to test a pill...
Photonics Company Established
Feb 28, 2010 — Key Photonics Ltd. of Cambridge, UK, has been formed to service the optics and photonics requirements of UK industrial and research companies. The company, specializing in the design and supply of optics, photonic components, optical systems and...
QCL peak power record smashed
EVANSTON, Ill. – Only a year ago, the peak output power of a quantum cascade laser (QCL) was 34 W. Today, thanks to researchers at the Center for Quantum Devices at Northwestern University, peak power of 120 W from a single device at room temperature has been...
Terahertz laser tuning comes down to the wire
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The progress of terahertz technology continues its steady march with news of a tunable terahertz laser developed by a group at MIT. Tunable terahertz lasers are particularly use...
The ins and outs of adjustable microlenses
CHANGCHUN, China – Adjustable microlenses now have a new knob that can be turned, courtesy of a research team led by Yanchun Han of Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry. The group demonstrated two new types of variable-focus liquid microlenses, one constructed...
Undersea Optical Communication
FALMOUTH, Mass., Feb. 26, 2010 – An undersea optical communications system, complemented by acoustics, is enabling a virtual revolution in high-speed undersea data collection and transmission. The scientists a...
Ultrafast Laser Enables New Technologies
BOULDER, Colo., Feb. 25, 2010 – In what is being touted as a major breakthrough, University of Colorado at Boulder physics professors, Margaret Murnane and Henry Kapteyn have built a tabletop X-ray laser for supe...
Molecules Morphed into New Material
ATLANTA, Feb. 24, 2010 – A class of molecules whose size, structure and chemical composition have been optimized for photonic use could one day be designed with the properties needed to serve as the founda...
Light Turned into Electrical Current
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22, 2010 – Using a golden nanoscale system, material scientists at the Nano/Bio Interface Center of the University of Pennsylvania are now turning light into electrical currents. The syst...
Textron Achieves Over 100 kW with Laser
WILMINGTON, Mass. Feb., 22, 2010 – Textron Defense Systems, an operating unit of Textron Systems, a Textron Inc. company, announced today that its Directed Energy Weapons business line has successfully tested its Joint High-Power Solid State Laser (J-HPSSL) laboratory demonstration...
Atom Interferometer Tests Redshift
BERKELEY, Calif., Feb. 19, 2010 - While airplane and rocket experiments have proved that gravity makes clocks tick more slowly – a central prediction of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity – a new experiment in an atom interferometer measures this slowdown 10,000 times...
Breakthrough for Hybrid Solar Cells
FREIBURG, Germany, Feb. 19, 2010 – A method for treating the surface of nanoparticles has enabled researchers to attain an efficiency rate of 2 percent by using so-called quantum dots composed of cadmium selenide. The method was developed by Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg...
Ultrafast Lasers Benefit Optical Experiments
WÜRZBURG, Germany, Feb. 18, 2010 – Until now, time-resolved optical experiments have been taking advantage of external moveable optical delay lines or two synchronized pulsed laser systems in order to achieve a defi...
‘Eye-Safe’ Laser Record Set
MUNICH, Feb. 18, 2010 – Laser Operations LLC, manufacturer of the QPC Lasers product line, announced new power and brightness records for lasers operating at “eye-safe” wavelengths between 1410 nm and 155...
Lasers Could Speed Cancer Testing
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 18, 2010 – When a tissue biopsy is sent to a lab to be analyzed for cancer, it can take hours, days or even a week to get the results. Now, a new analysis technology developed by researchers i...
VCSELs Key to High-Speed Communication
GRENOBLE, France, Feb. 18, 2010 – Research on long-wavelength VCSELs (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers) is aimed at finding an efficient and reliable technological answer to the ever-growing demands for bandwidth in telecommunication networks. The European project...
AMS Readies for Dark-Matter Mission
GENEVA, Feb. 17, 2010 – The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) has taken its initial steps in a journey that will take it ultimately to the International Space Station (ISS), where it will be used to look ...
Photons Led Astray
ERLANGEN, Germany, Feb. 17, 2010 – An international team, headed by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, is using polarized light (light waves that oscillate in a particular plane) to de...
Shinshu U. Picks PET Crystals
SINGAPORE, Feb. 17, 2010 – Zecotek Photonics Inc.’s LFS scintillation crystals have been selected by Shinshu University in Japan for trials in its next-generation positron emission tomography (PET) medical i...
