Solar Technology: Seeking Its Day in the Sun
Jul 1, 2007 — Throughout its long history, Japan has been known as the land of the rising sun. A modern adaptation of that moniker might be the land of the multiplying solar panels. The roof of Terminal 2 at Munich International Airport in Germany was outfitted with solar arrays in 2002. The arrays are designed to tilt toward the sun to maximize energy production. Courtesy of BP Solar. The island nation has embraced the sun’s considerable power and continues to lead the world (along with Germany) in...
Speedy Spectroscopy of Single Nanoparticles
Jul 1, 2007 — Nanoparticles present distinct research problems. Because of variations among production batches, investigators tend to choose to study individual particles. Doing so, however, is technically challenging, and it is difficult to generate meaningful...
Studying a Splat in the Making
Jul 1, 2007 — The splat that droplets of plasma make when they strike a substrate is similar to the shape that pancake batter forms when it hits a hot griddle. In the past, scientists investigating plasmas have had only the splat to work with — a situation that...
Future Bright for Nano-Light
BERKELEY, Calif., June 29, 2007 -- A biofriendly nano-sized light source capable of emitting coherent light across the visible spectrum could result in single-cell endoscopy and other forms of subwavelength bioimaging, integrated circuitry for nanophotonic technology, and new methods...
Particles Paired to Proteins
UPTON, N.Y., June 28, 2007 -- Gold nanoparticles have been strategically attached to proteins to form sheets of protein-gold arrays. The nanoparticles and methods to create nanoparticle-protein complexes can be used to help decipher protein structures, to identify functional...
CARS Reveals Myelin Clues
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., June 27, 2007 -- A new imaging technique called coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering, or CARS, has lead to the discovery that calcium ions could play a crucial role in multiple sclerosis (MS) by activating enzymes that degrade myelin, the fatty sheath that...
Laser Products Debut
MUNICH, Germany, June 18, 2007 -- Products representing the entire spectrum of light measurement will be on display this week at LASER 2007.World of Photonics at the Munich Trade Centre, where visitors will get the opportunity to see, inspect and discuss the systems with their...

MUNICH, Germany, June 18, 2007 -- Products representing the entire spectrum of light measurement will be on display this week at LASER 2007.World of Photonics at the Munich Trade Centre, where visitors will get the opportunity to see, inspect and discuss the systems with their...
Shaping Up Carbon Nanotubes
TROY, N.Y., June 13, 2007 -- A new method boosts the density of carbon nanotube bundles by five to 25 times, creating efficient conductors that could one day replace copper as the primary interconnects used on computer chips and even hasten the transition to next-generation 3-D...
STED Microscope Inventor to Receive Springer Prize
Jun 13, 2007 — This year’s recipient of the Julius Springer Prize for Applied Physics is Göttingen, Germany-based researcher Stefan W. Hell for his revolutionary discovery that resolutions far below the diffraction limit can be achieved in a fluorescence...
Biomedicine Grants Awarded
BETHESDA, Md., June 12, 2007 -- The National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), a part of the National Institutes of Health, announced today it will provide $20.65 million in grants to fund cutting-edge equipment required to advance biomedical research. Awarded to research...
Spectroscopy Tools Developed
GAITHERSBURG, Md., June 11, 2007 -- Calibration tools have been developed to help correct and confirm the performance of analytic instruments that identify substances based on fluorescence. Recent years have seen a significant increase in the development and use of...
Laser Light Promising for Diagnosing Skin Cancer
DURHAM, N.C., June 6, 2007 -- In an early step toward nonsurgical screening for malignant skin cancers, a laser-based system has been demonstrated that can capture 3-D images of the chemical and structural changes happening beneath the surface of human skin. "The standard...
Tapping Into Dormant Spores
LIVERMORE, Calif., June 7, 2007 -- Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has shown the alterations of spore coat and germ cell wall that accompany the transformation from a spore to a vegetative cell. Although significant progress has been made in understanding the biochemical and...
A Crane for Very Small Construction Sites
Jun 1, 2007 — It is always best to have the right tool for the job at hand. Unfortunately, researchers investigating the high-resolution positioning of single nanoparticles have lacked the proper equipment. As a result, they have not been able to controllably...
Asylum Research Invests in German Distributor
Jun 1, 2007 — A manufacturer of atomic force microscopes, Asylum Research of Santa Barbara, Calif., has purchased a majority interest in Atomic Force F&E GmbH, of Mannheim, Germany, which has been its European distributor since 1999. The investment is...
Diverse Photonics Research Part of University's Curriculum
Jun 1, 2007 — The Center for Research and Education in Optics and Lasers (CREOL) has been in existence since 1986 at the University of Central Florida (UCF) in Orlando and recently morphed into the first US college devoted solely to optics — The College of Optics...
Edge-Emitting Photonic Crystal Nanolaser
Jun 1, 2007 — Tiny resonators and waveguides based on photonic crystals provide a promising approach to fabricating high-density photonic integrated circuits. Recently, collaborating scientists at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, at the...
Getting the ‘Hole’ Picture Up Close
Jun 1, 2007 — Plasmons — local electron oscillations in metal films — hold great promise as the basis for sensors and optical switches. A challenge with such substrates has been pinpointing the location of the highest plasmonic signal -- knowledge of which could...
Going Negative in the Visible
Jun 1, 2007 — Negative refraction — the recently realized opposite of positive refraction — is of interest because, among other applications, it promises a superlens that can image far below the diffraction limit. To date, negative refraction has been...
Hyperlens Achieves 130-nm Resolution
Jun 1, 2007 — Because metamaterial-based lenses can overcome the diffraction limit of light waves, they may enable optical imaging of objects much smaller than typical lenses can resolve. Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, achieved 130-nm...
INTERFEROMETRY
Jun 1, 2007 — The second edition of Basics of Interferometry offers new chapters on white-light microscopy for medical imaging and on interference with single photonics (quantum optics). New sections detail developments such as gravitational wave detectors,...
Microscope Slide Enables ~70-nm Resolution
Jun 1, 2007 — Conventional optical microscopes can resolve objects on the order of only 200 nm because they are limited by the diffraction of light waves, meaning that small things such as DNA and viruses cannot be seen. Although both scanning probe and electron...
Natural Fiber Optic Plates
Jun 1, 2007 — A research team has discovered that cells in the retina of vertebrates function like fiber optic plates, yet the ways in which they differ from man-made materials could provide clues for building superior optical fibers and fiber optic plates. For...
Olympus to Distribute for Hamamatsu
Jun 1, 2007 — Olympus America Inc. of Center Valley, Pa., has signed an agreement with Hamamatsu Corp. of Bridgewater, N.J., to distribute the latter’s Nanozoomer digital pathology system in the US and Canada. The virtual microscopy system delivers automated...
