Compact, sensitive and fast nanodetectors are considered to be somewhat of a "Holy Grail" sought by many researchers around the world. And now a team of scientists in Italy and France has been inspired by nanomaterials and has created a novel ...
Scientists from Ghent University and imec announce today that they demonstrated interaction between light and sound in a nanoscale area. Their findings elucidate the physics of light-matter coupling at these scales – and pave the way for enhanced ...
While these techniques have been around for years, more recently the use of nanomaterials such as various forms of gold nanoparticles (rods, cages, spheres), quantum dots or iron-oxide nanoparticles has allowed researchers to refine their therapeutic ...
Santa Clara, CA - Spectra-Physics, a Newport Company, has introduced its ClearShape femtosecond laser process for high-quality, fast cutting of chemically strengthened glass, unstrengthened glass, and sapphire. At speeds over 1000mm/s, the process ...
Sensors and microelectronic controls monitor pressure and adjust flow rates to match a patient's activity—allowing the heart rate to accommodate exercise, for example. The membrane surface facing the pumping system is made of polyurethane, while the ...
