Ancient Material Shows High Degree of Birefringence for Use in Displays
SUITA, Japan, April 22, 2019 — When researchers at Osaka University measured the optical birefringence of highly aligned cellulose nanofibers, they found that cellulose’s intrinsic birefringence could be powerful enough to be used in optical displays. For its experiments, the team used unidirectionally-aligned cellulose nanofiber films that it created by stretching hydrogels from nata de coco (a jelly-like food produced from coconut water) at different rates. The nata de coco nanofibers allowed a straight line of

Biophotonic Therapy Decontaminates Organs Before Transplantation
SÃO PAULO, April 16, 2019 — A new technique for the decontamination of organs before transplantation using UV and red light irradiation has been developed by researchers at the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) in partnership with the University of Toronto. The...
FLIR Awarded $48.1M for Sensor Upgrade
WILSONVILLE, Ore., April 15, 2019 — In an agreement with the U.S. Department of Defense valued at $48.1 million, FLIR Systems Inc. will be the lead integrator in the modernization of the U.S. Army’s Nuclear Biological Chemical Reconnaissance Vehicle (NBCRV) system. Under the...
Optical Sensor Based on Plasmonics Quickly Detects Hydrogen Gas
GÖTEBORG, Sweden, April 15, 2019 — An optical nanosensor that changes color when the amount of hydrogen in the environment changes could be used to quickly detect leaks when hydrogen mixes with air. Hydrogen, a clean and renewable energy carrier, could power vehicles in the future;...
Molecular Vibrations Imaged for First Time
IRVINE, Calif., April 15, 2019 — Scientists at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) focused light down to the size of an atom to produce the first images of a molecule’s normal modes of vibration. The images could provide a better understanding of the concept of...
