GAITHERSBURG, Md., July 31, 2020 — While awaiting full access to their labs due to COVID-19 restrictions, scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have taken the time to report on research conducted in 2012 on the disinfection of drinking water using...
Pushing camera design beyond nature’s limits
URBANA, Ill. – A camera design inspired by the ocular systems found in insects, arachnids and crustaceans is being pushed beyond anything that exists in nature. In the May 2 issue of Nature (doi: 10.1038/nature12083), an interdisciplinary team led by John A....
Camera Mimics an Insect’s Compound Eyes
URBANA, Ill., May 1, 2013 — A hemispherical-shaped digital camera that mimics the design of ocular systems found in arthropods offers a wide-angle bug’s-eye view and nearly infinite depth of field for applications ranging from advanced surveillance cameras to miniaturized...
Superradiant laser holds bright promise
BOULDER, Colo. – A new “superradiant” laser that traps 1 million rubidium atoms into a 2-cm space between two mirrors produces a deep-red laser beam that could boost the performance of the most advanced atomic clocks, communications and navigation...
Nearly Lightless Laser Has Bright Future
BOULDER, Colo., April 4, 2012 — A new “superradiant” laser design that traps 1 million rubidium atoms into a 2-cm space between two mirrors produces a deep-red laser beam that could boost the performance of most advanced atomic clocks, communications and navigation systems, and...
Inner Life of Magnets Exposed
BOULDER, Colo., March 22, 2012 — Specialized x-ray lasers reveal the inner workings of magnets, a discovery that could lead to smarter, faster computers.
EUV Frequency Comb Debuts
BOULDER, Colo., Feb. 6, 2012 — The first “frequency comb” in the extreme ultraviolet band has the potential to advance nuclear clocks and to measure previously unexplored behavior in atoms and molecules.
Cold-Atom Lab in a Box
Jul 1, 2011 — Bringing cold atoms to the classroom gives undergraduate students a hands-on way to learn about physics – and could inspire lifetime careers using photonics to manipulate atoms. Bringing cutting-edge physics into the undergraduate classroom...
Extremely Fast Processes Recorded
KIEL, Germany, March 15, 2011 — Using pulses in the soft x-ray spectral region, scientists at the University of Kiel have demonstrated how quickly an intense laser can change the electrical properties of solids. The results of their research may lead to the development of...
JILA Upgrades Terahertz Source
GAITHERSBURG, Md., Jan. 24, 2011 — JILA researchers have developed a laser-based source of terahertz radiation that is unusually efficient and less prone to damage than similar systems. The technology might be useful in applications such as detecting trace gases or imaging weapons in...
Multiwavelength spectroscopy improves semiconductor quality
BOULDER, Colo. – A highly sensitive spectral measurement technique has been extended from biomedical breath analysis to industrial detection of impurities in semiconductor gases, according to a group from JILA, a joint institute of the National Institute of...
’Molecular Fingerprinting’ Improved for Gas Detection
GAITHERSBERG, Md., Oct. 21, 2010 — Scientists have demonstrated a laser-based “molecular fingerprinting” technique that can differentiate billions of hydrogen-containing and other molecules from one another in gas in just 30 seconds or less — a performance that is...
U of I Physicist Named Packard Fellow
CHAMPAIGN, Ill., Oct. 19, 2010 — Benjamin Lev, physics professor at the University of Illinois, has been named a Packard Fellow in science and engineering. He is among 17 early career researchers honored by the David and Lucille Packard Foundation in 2010 for outstanding creative...
‘Pin Art’ Mass Produces Nanowires
GAITHERSBURG, Md., Aug. 9, 2010 — Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have cultivated many thousands of nanocrystals onto silicon, a step they say will bring us closer to reliable mass production of semiconductor nanowires. Dubbed...
