Brookhaven’s Zhu Awarded MSA Award for Physical Sciences
UPTON, N.Y., May 22, 2018 — The Microscopy Society of America (MSA) has selected Yimei Zhu, a senior physicist and leader of the Electron Microscopy and Nanostructure Group in the Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Science Department at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory, to receive the 2018 Distinguished Scientist Award for physical sciences. The annual award recognizes two senior scientists — one in the physical sciences and the other in biological sciences — for
New American Institute of Physics CEO Has Optics Background
WASHINGTON, May 22, 2015 — Optics and plasmonics researcher Robert G.W. Brown will become the new CEO of the American Institute of Physics (AIP) June 1. He succeeds H. Frederick Dylla, who announced his intent to retire last June after eight years as CEO of the nonprofit...
Laboratory lightning strikes more than twice
PALAISEAU, France — With the help of a laser-based lightning rod, laboratory-generated lightning was coaxed to strike the same place not just twice but numerous times, and contrary to the path of least resistance. This advance demonstrates the potential of laser-based...
Lab lightning strikes same place more than twice
PALAISEAU, France – With the help of a laser-based lightning rod, laboratory-generated lightning was coaxed to strike the same place not just twice but numerous times, and contrary to the path of least resistance. This advance demonstrates the potential of such rods...
Laboratory Lightning Strikes More than Twice
PALAISEAU, France, March 16, 2012 — With the help of a laser-based lightning rod, laboratory-generated lightning was coaxed to strike the same place not just twice but numerous times, and contrary to the path of least resistance. This advance demonstrates the potential of laser-based...
Carbon Nanotube Forest Camouflages 3-D Objects
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 23, 2011 — One of the unique properties of carbon nanotubes — the low refractive index of low-density aligned nanotubes — also has a unique application: making 3-D objects appear as nothing more than a flat, black sheet. Researchers from the...
Digital Imaging Sensor Pioneer - Willard S. Boyle
Jun 1, 2011 — As we were wrapping up this issue of Photonics Spectra, word reached us of the May 7 death in Canada of Willard S. Boyle, who shared the 2009 Nobel Prize in physics for his work on the first digital imaging sensor, which led to the digital...
Optical Fiber Device Promises Safer Drug Delivery
IRVINE, Calif., April 12, 2011 — A new optical fiber-based drug delivery device promises to unlock the potential of photosensitive chemicals to kill drug-resistant infections and perhaps cancer tumors as well. The device was designed and constructed by researchers Jie Chen, Thomas...
Smaller Features, Faster Wafers
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., Dec. 16, 2010 — The manufacturing of semiconductor wafers used in all types of electronics involves etching small features onto a wafer with lasers. This process ultimately is limited by the wavelength of the light itself. The semiconductor industry is rapidly...
Tiny Laser Show Lights Up Quantum Computing
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9, 2010 — A new laser-beam steering system that aims and focuses bursts of light onto single atoms for use in quantum computers has been demonstrated by collaborating researchers from Duke University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Described in the...
TOPICAL SECTION
Feb 1, 2008 — Beginning with the first issue of 2008, the weekly journal Applied Physics Letters has included the section heading “Organic Electronics and Photonics” in its table of contents to provide a common field for manuscripts in this category. Original,...
Digital Pioneer Wins National Physics Prize
Oct 15, 2007 — Larry J. Hornbeck, PhD, who invented a key technology behind high-definition television (HDTV), has been awarded the 2007-08 Prize for Industrial Applications of Physics by the American Institute of Physics (AIP) and General Motors for "his...
OSA, AIP Air Photonics TV Spots
Jun 27, 2007 — The Optical Society of America (OSA) and the American Institute of Physics (AIP) are jointly developing TV news segments on advances in optics and photonics. The program, "Discoveries and Breakthroughs Inside Science" (DBIS), is designed to help...
’Breaking Barriers’ 2007 CLEO/QELS Theme
BALTIMORE, Md., May 10, 2007 -- New optics concepts and phenomena that rely on 20th-century optics are recently becoming part of researchers’ fundamental tools, said Ben Stein, a senior science writer and editor at the American Institute of Physics who moderated a panel,...
’Breaking Barriers’ 2007 CLEO/QELS Theme
BALTIMORE, Md., May 10, 2007 -- New optics concepts and phenomena that rely on "classical" optics are recently becoming part of researchers’ fundamental tools, said Ben Stein, a senior science writer and editor at the American Institute of Physics who moderated a panel, "New...
Research Portal to Launch
WASHINGTON, April 17, 2007 -- A free search portal that will enable users to explore research cited in scholarly work and patents will be launched by 12 science, engineering and technology societies in June, OSA announced today. More than 3 million documents, including...
Daily News Briefs
Mar 23, 2005 — Nominations are being accepted for the 2005-2006 American Institute of Physics (AIP) Prize for Industrial Applications of Physics. The $10,000 prize, co-sponsored by General Motors Corp. and the AIP, is awarded on behalf of the AIP Corporate...
