The advancement in information technology is based on the ability to manipulate electron flow utilizing engineering materials. However, most properties of matter are not yet clearly defined. Now, Zubin Jacob, an electrical engineering researcher at the University of Alberta, is working on understanding certain unusual electronic properties of matter utilizing optical analogues.
In recent decades, researchers have shown more interest on the development of novel phosphors that can be excited via ultraviolet (UV) light emitting diodes (LEDs).
An engineering team comprising Jennifer Dionne and Jonathan Scholl from the Stanford School of Engineering has investigated plasmon resonances of single metal particles that have a diameter of down to 1 nm. The research study will be reported in the journal, Nature.
Researchers from the Duke University have shown that a metamaterial device developed by them was able to produce holograms in the infrared light range for the first time.
A team of international researchers led by Professor Tim Liedl, a LMU physicist, has developed novel, optically active, three-dimensional structures based on the structure of DNAs. DNA strands act as scaffolds for bonding gold nanoparticles in predestined patterns.
A research team comprising scientists from the Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories and Duke University has put forward a theory that the efficacy of wireless power transfer systems can be improved by increasing their inductive coupling through the integration of superlens, a lens made of artificially-structured metamaterials.
OCI Company, a South Korean chemicals manufacturing company, has celebrated commencement of production in its new sapphire manufacturing facility on March 2, 2012.
Arburg, a manufacturer of injection moulding machines for plastics processing, will showcase hydraulic, hybrid and electric Allrounder machines that produces high-quality plastic moulded parts for packaging and optical markets at the Chinaplas 2012 exhibition. In addition, the company will introduce the new electric EDRIVE series at the event.
A research team from the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) has found that graphene provides a superior active media for optical modulators.
A research team led by Nader Engheta from the University of Pennsylvania is working on ways to use light in place of electricity. The team has developed the first physical illustration of ‘lumped’ optical circuit elements using nanotechnology.
