SPIE Elects de Groot into its Presidential Chain
BELLINGHAM, Wash., Aug. 23, 2022 — Peter de Groot, chief scientist at Zygo Corp., was elected to serve as the 2023 vice president of SPIE. The election brings de Groot into the SPIE presidential chain. He will serve as president-elect in 2024 and as the society’s president in...
Synthetic Fibers Light the Path for Molecular Motion
NOTTINGHAM, England, Oct. 19, 2021 — Research from the University of Nottingham demonstrated the use of synthetic fibers to drive molecular motion over long distances, fueled by light. The work may open avenues for the use of light as a source of sustainable energy, as well as in...
Imaging Method Reveals the Way Plants Take Up Water
NOTTINGHAM, England, Aug. 3, 2021 — Researchers at the University of Nottingham report the development of a way to observe how plant roots take in and circulate water at the cellular level. The work could help to identify future drought- and flood-resistant crops. The inability to...
Breakthrough in Terahertz Quantum Cascade Lasers
LEEDS, England, Feb. 13, 2020 — A research team from the University of Leeds and the University of Nottingham believe they have found a way of delivering ultrafast modulation, by combining the power of acoustic and lightwaves. They published their findings in Nature...
LED-Based UV Light Can Rapidly Convert 3D Printing Polymeric Inks Into Solids
NOTTINGHAM, England, Nov. 14, 2017 — A breakthrough in rapid additive manufacturing that involves UV light solidifying the inks used could pave the way for fully functional 3D printed electronic circuits. Researchers at the University of Nottingham have pioneered the breakthrough and...
Selective Laser Melting Produces Safer Automotive Components, Minimizes Waste
NOTTINGHAM, England, Jan. 23, 2017 — Using selective laser melting (SLM), engineers are creating lightweight automotive components that boost vehicle fuel efficiency, cut noise and lessen CO2 emissions. Engineers at The University of Nottingham have developed the new additive...
Making Fire Damage Assessment Concrete
Jan 23, 2017 — Concrete, fire and lasers generally don’t go hand in hand. But suppose there was a way to incorporate all three — specifically, in a laser that could detect and assess fire damage on concrete. Researchers at the University of Nottingham...
Happy Birthday, Your Majesty
Jul 18, 2016 — Queen Elizabeth II has owned at least 30 Pembroke Welsh corgi dogs in her lifetime, ever since her father, King George VI, brought home Dookie when she was a child. So when scientists at the University of Nottingham — who hold the world record...
UK Awards Funds for Light-Based Manufacturing
GLASGOW, Scotland, Jan. 8, 2014 — Research projects that explore how light can be used in new ways to improve manufacturing in the pharmaceutical, chemical, electronics and security industries has received £3.6 million (about $6 million) in government funding. The money,...
QDs Help Make Solar Fuel a Reality
MANCHESTER, England, July 5, 2011 — A solar-nano device is being created with the hope that it can harness the energy of the sun and convert it into a clean fuel alternative. Using quantum dots grafted with catalyst molecules, scientists are harvesting the sun’s energy to...
Copernicus Project Developing Photonic Crystal Technology
NEUILLY-SUR-SEINE, France, Oct. 26, 2010 — European scientists and engineers have joined forces to pursue a visionary concept to employ photonic crystals for ultrafast signal processing with integrated optical circuits. The Copernicus project, which runs until the end of 2012, has...
Quantum Leap for Phonon Lasers
COLLEGE PARK, Md., March 1, 2010 – Physicists have taken major steps forward in the development of practical phonon lasers, which emit sound in much the same way that optical lasers emit light. The development s...
Sensor Combines Images, Video
OXFORD, England, Feb. 16, 2010 — By combining off-the-shelf technologies found in standard cameras and digital movie projectors, researchers in England developed a revolutionary way of capturing a high-resolution ...
Villa Solar Set for June in Madrid
Dec 2, 2009 — At a time when several European countries are proposing cuts to feed-in tariffs, known in the past as a great motivator for the solar industry, cutting-edge research and innovation in sustainable development and renewable energy are ramping up for a...
CT scanner peers into soil and sustainable materials
Dec 1, 2009 — Imagine looking at the inner structure of pretty much anything – and getting ultrahigh-quality, high-resolution images that show it changing over time. Researchers at the University of Nottingham in the UK are doing just that with a...
Getting to the electrochemical core makes for better materials science
NOTTINGHAM, UK – Scientists have, for the first time, probed the inner core of electrochemical interactions as they happen. The application of this new spectroelectrochemistry technique could lead to a more efficient and more intelligent design of new materials to...
Acoustic Saser Laser Realized
NOTTINGHAM, England, June 18, 2009 – A new type of acoustic laser device called a ‘saser’ was realized by scientists at the University of Nottingham. In collaboration with colleagues in the Ukraine, the group produced the sonic equivalent to the laser which produces an intense beam of...
Virtual Workout for Lazy Eyes
May 1, 2006 — Amblyopia, or “lazy eye,” is a condition in which one eye is forced to work harder than the other and the less-used eye’s vision progressively degenerates. The traditional treatment for the problem has been to cover the good eye with a patch for...
