Polycarbonate LED Use
APTOS, Calif., Dec. 2, 2016 — ElectroniCast Consultants estimate that the use of polycarbonate in LED lighting reached 123,900 metric tons in 2015. “Since the LED light source is very durable and long-lasting, for example [for] 10 years, the piece-parts of the LED lamp or...
Optical Imaging Platform Uses Light to Treat Arrhythmia
SESTO FIORENTINO and FLORENCE, Italy, Nov. 28, 2016 — Use of light to defibrillate cardioarrhythmic events in humans could offer a gentler alternative to shocking the heart back to normal rhythm through a generalized electrical discharge. With the introduction of Channelrhodopsin (ChR) as a tool to...
Silicon Nanoantennas Turn Light Around
MOSCOW, Nov. 22, 2016 — Light is rather hard to control, as photons have neither mass nor electric charge. Devices such as nanoantennas can control the propagation of electromagnetic waves, but only to a certain degree. A proposed nonlinear optical nanoantenna that can be...
Light Could Propel Nanorobots on a “Fantastic Voyage” Through the Human Body
HONG KONG, Nov. 18, 2016 — Light-driven synthetic nanorobots, comparable in size to a blood cell, could someday travel through the human body to aid surgeons in the removal of tumors and target medications. A nanorobot that uses light as its propelling force has been...
Photon Source Lighting the Way for Quantum Computing
CORK CITY, Ireland, Nov. 18, 2016 — As today's computers show fundamental limitations in calculation capacity for future use, a scalable, electrically driven photon source could make quantum computing a reality sooner than expected.
