Pulsed 'Laser-in-Liquids' Approach Speeds Catalyst Discovery
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Aug. 5, 2021 — A team at the University of Rochester showed the efficacy of pulsed lasers in accelerating research into chemical catalysts. The development of even a single catalyst material capable of triggering the arrangement and motion of the atoms needed to...
Tiny Pressure Sensor Measures Minute Changes Within the Body
HONG KONG, Feb. 19, 2021 — Researchers from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University developed a miniaturized, highly sensitive optical fiber sensor that could be used to measure small pressure changes within the body — changes as minute as 2 kilopascals (kPa). The sensor...
Manufacturing Fiber Optic Glass Under Pressure
STATE COLLEGE, Pa., Dec. 28, 2020 — Silica glass for fiber optics applications may perform better when manufactured under high pressure, according to research from Penn State and AGC Inc. in Japan. Researchers demonstrated that doing so reduced signal loss in the material. John C....
The science of comfort
Mar 11, 2014 — Everyone has at least one pair: sneakers that flatten your feet. High heels that rub your heels raw. Loafers that cramp your toes. You try, fruitlessly, to patch the damage with bandages or thick socks. In today’s cookie-cutter world of shoe...
Optical Sensors Speed Up Production Lines
Sep 1, 2013 — Recent advances in optical sensors enable the industry to monitor manufacturing processes on line in real time at a very fast rate. Optical sensors are not only essential for safety on the production line, but they are also fast becoming an...
Diamond aerogel could improve optics
LIVERMORE, Calif. – A nanocrystalline diamond aerogel could spell big improvements to optics for applications as large as telescopes or as small as eyeglass lenses. At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), a laser-heated diamond anvil cell and a standard...
For Sensitive Internal Components, Moisture Is the Enemy
Mar 1, 2011 — Moisture control technology – critical to the defense, aerospace, electro-optical and many other industries – moves from inside containers to inside the equipment. For high-tech equipment ranging from missiles and munitions to engines,...
Atlas Material Testing Sold
CHICAGO, Dec. 1, 2010 — Ametek has acquired Atlas Material Testing Technology, the world’s leading provider of weathering test instruments and related testing and consulting services, from Industrial Growth Partners for approximately $159 million in cash. Atlas is...
Touchless Sensors on the Horizon
WÜRZBURG, Germany, March 25, 2010 — The cell phone is switched off but immediately springs into action at the point of a finger. It is not necessary to touch the display. This touchless control is made possible by a polymer sensor affixed to the phone which, like human skin, reacts to...
Silicates Get Denser When You Go Deeper
Aug 1, 2008 — Far below the Earth’s surface, where pressure and temperature escalate ferociously at the border between the mantle and the core, lies the history of primordial chemical differentiation. Molten silicates, such as MgSiO3 melts, likely comprised a...
MEAS Buys Sensor Maker
HAMPTON, Va., Jan. 2, 2008 -- Sensor and sensor-based systems manufacturer Measurement Specialties Inc. (MEAS) announced today it has expanded its sensor portfolio by acquiring Intersema Sensoric SA, a maker of pressure sensors and modules, for as much as $57 million. Under...
Stressed CNTs are Reliable
TROY, N.Y., Oct. 24, 2007 -- If blocks of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are squeezed over and over again with the same amount of force, their electrical resistance decreases by a constant amount each time. This reliable relationship gives CNTs a powerful advantage as pressure...
Eye Implant Monitors Pressure
DUISBURG, Germany, Sept. 5, 2007 -- An artificial lens with an integrated sensor is being developed as a permanent implant that could provide better long-term monitoring of high pressure in the eye, blood vessels, bladder or brain. If the pressure in the eye is too high, nerve...
Fiber-Based Sensors Target Geophysical Applications
Sep 1, 2004 — Fiber optics technology has found use in a variety of sensing applications in the oil and gas industry. Distributed temperature, pressure, vibration, strain and flow are a few of the parameters that such sensors measure, with the result being...
