Mechanoluminescent Glass-Ceramic Could Provide Readout of Structural Strain
WASHINGTON, D.C., Aug. 8, 2022 — A team at Friedrich Schiller University Jena has developed a glass-ceramic material that emits light in response to mechanical stress. With further development, the mechanoluminescent material could provide a means to detect and monitor mechanical stress in buildings and other structures, as well as in artificial joints in the body, the team said. Mechanoluminescence — light emission from an optically active material caused by mechanical stimulation — involves a mechanical
Tethered-Balloon Tests Ensure Safety of Particle-Based Solar Tech
ALBUQUERUE, N.M., April 28, 2021 — A team from Sandia National Laboratories received $25 million from the U.S. Department of Energy to build a pilot plant that will incorporate an emerging solar power technology. The Sandia researchers recently used 22-foot-wide tethered balloons...
