The American Institute for Manufacturing Integrated Photonics (AIM Photonics) has received grants totalling $1.2 million from the National Science Foundation, which will enable collaborative photonics-centred research
Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a new approach of 3D x-ray imaging for observing bulky materials in great detail, which could help scientists analyse the structural information of countless materials, from batteries to biological systems
A French start-up detailing its hopes of being the first to commercialise quantum single-photon light sources represents the first time EPIC has focused on quantum technology at one of its events
A new optical sensor that can check the presence of contaminants in milk and produce a detailed reading in minutes, is set to reduce costs, wastage and antibiotic use linked to the production, quality control, and processing phases in the dairy industry
On 22 August, a powerful lidar instrument was launched into orbit by the European Space Agency as part of the first space mission to acquire profiles of the wind on a global scale
Using terahertz technology, engineers have been able to investigate the operating frequencies within semiconductor lasers for the first time
Lidar could help narrow the scope and speed up the search for clues during crime scene investigations, according to a new study
The research group plans to apply the findings to design nanoparticles capable of reproducing similar effects in the optical range
Fraunhofer FEP scientists have developed a new micropatterning approach for OLEDs on silicon substrates, which could potentially eliminate the use of colour filters and shadow masks and allow full-colour displays to be developed by means of a new process
Imec scientist Niels Verellen has been awarded a €1.5 million 'Starting Grant' from the European Research Council (ERC) to develop a high-resolution, inexpensive and ultra-compact microscope based on on-chip photonics and CMOS image sensors
