Researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), a collaboration of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the University of Maryland at College Park, can speed up photons (particles of light) to seemingly faster-than-light speeds through a stack of materials by adding a single, strategically placed layer.
On February 19th a conference will be held at the Royal Library in Copenhagen, Denmark about the construction and use of the European Spallation Source, the next generation materials research facility to be built in Lund...
The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded PPG Industries (NYSE:PPG) a $1.6 million grant for the development of a low-cost glass substrate to promote the commercialization and mass production of organic light-emitting di...
At SPE’s FlexPackCon in Houston, Feb. 22-24, 2010, Hank Schirmer of BBS Corp. will discuss research on barrier films produced with up to 75 layers of various resins, including EVOH and COC.
X-rays can do a lot of useful things -- detect broken bones, tumors and dental cavities, analyze atoms in diverse materials and screen luggage at airports -- but who knew they could cause crystals to form?
A team of ...
Shakespeare wrote it in his play "The Winter's Tale": "Everything freezes." At Battelle, an ingenious innovation using carbon nanotubes may prove the Bard of Avon wrong.
Scientists at Battelle ...
Physicists have long wondered whether hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, could be transformed into a metal and possibly even a superconductor - the elusive state in which electrons can flow without resi...
Scientists at Max Planck Institute of Plasma Physics (IPP) in Garching and Greifswald and Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin have discovered a new way in which high-energy radiation in water can release slow electrons. Thei...
Polymer Group, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: POLGA; POLGB) (PGI) today announced it will establish a research "Center of Excellence" (COE) to develop new nonwoven technology platforms yielding differentiated, highe...
When University of Utah scientists discovered a new kind of laser that was generated by an electrically conducting plastic or polymer, no one could explain how it worked and some doubted it was real. Now, a decade later, the Utah researchers have found these "random lasers" occur because of natural, mirror-like cavities in the polymers, and they say such lasers may prove useful for diagnosing cancer.
