Thanks to Fibers and Geometry — Imaging

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Some researchers believe that people would benefit from more fiber — and not just in their diets. In the June issue of Nature Materials, a group at MIT in Cambridge, Mass., has demonstrated fiber-based imaging that is free of conventional optics and detectors, offering such advantages as the ability to determine the direction of photons arriving from anywhere and the ability to build very large imagers. A scanning electron microscopic cross section of a photodetecting fiber shows the photoconductive core, the electrodes that run along the length (the squares that protrude from the core)...Read full article
