Halma Purchases Labsphere from X-Rite
Mar 1, 2007 — Safety, health and sensor technology group Halma plc of Amersham, UK, has acquired Labsphere Inc. from color management system developer X-Rite Inc. of Grand Rapids, Mich. The transaction involves an initial cash consideration of $13.9 million and a...
Inexpensive P-Type Zinc Oxide Nanowires
Mar 1, 2007 — LEDs and lasers used in solid-state lighting, display and other applications often incorporate gallium nitride, and the process employed for large-scale production of such diodes is costly. Although materials such as zinc oxide could form a viable,...
Modern Technology Follows Ancient Paths
Mar 1, 2007 — For almost 2000 years, ancient Central American villagers followed narrow footpaths while making spiritual retreats to dozens of distant burial grounds. Frequent single-file processions caused the terrain to erode, resulting in trenches nearly 10...
Nanomaterials Create Optical Coating That Is Almost Reflection Free
Mar 1, 2007 — An optical coating engineered from nanomaterials has exhibited virtually no reflection, almost equaling the refractive index of air. Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y., reported in the March issue of Nature Photonics their...
Oki Electric and ZyCube Agree to Market Image Sensors
Mar 1, 2007 — Oki Electric Industry Co. Ltd. has signed an agreement with ZyCube Co. Ltd. to jointly commercialize the ZyCSP, an image sensor LSI with buried interconnects developed by ZyCube. The two Tokyo-based companies will develop and manufacture packages...
Optical Coating Reflects Virtually No Light
TROY, N.Y., March 1, 2007 -- Scientists have created an optical coating from a material that reflects virtually no light. The research could lead to the development of much brighter LEDs, more efficient solar cells and a new class of "smart" light sources that adjust to...
Partnership Formed to Produce Liquid Lenses in China
Mar 1, 2007 — Varioptic SA of Lyon, France, and Creative Sensor Inc. of Taiwan have formed a partnership to mass-produce variable-focus liquid lenses in China. The companies say that the partnership will result in production of one million units monthly by the...

Mar 1, 2007 — Daniel Gall, assistant professor of materials science and engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y., has been awarded a Faculty Early Career Development Award from the National Science Foundation, given to faculty members at the...
Sap Sampling Made Simple
Mar 1, 2007 — Making maple syrup has long been a rite of early spring. The process is labor-intensive: tapping sugar maples, gathering around 30 to 50 buckets of sap per gallon of syrup, stoking the sugarhouse fires to boil down the liquid, careful watching and...
Tasting the Fizz of Soda Pop
Mar 1, 2007 — Flat soda tastes different from fresh, and Kenneth S. Suslick, a chemistry professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has the pictures to prove it. The loss of carbon dioxide can clearly be detected in the output of a color-based...
