Mobius’ Tailored Pulse Burst Laser Granted Patent
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 24, 2012 — The fiber laser company received US Patent No. 8,160,113 for its tailored pulse burst laser system, which can produce user-specific bursts of laser pulses tailored in pulse heights, widths and spacings.
Plasmonics Creates Invisible Photodetector
STANFORD, Calif., May 23, 2012 — An invisible light-detecting device that can see without being seen was created using plasmonic cloaking and could lead to a new class of devices that controls the flow of light at the nanoscale to produce both optical and electronic functions.
Simple, Safe Optochemical Sensor Relies on Light
GIESSEN, Germany, May 23, 2012 — Using only the interaction between nanostructures and light, an optochemical sensor has been developed that is simpler, safer and more reliable than standard electrical sensors. Researchers working on the European Union-funded Dotsense project have...
Interferometry Advances Black Hole Observations
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., May 22, 2012 — A new technique that combines the light of three powerful infrared telescopes allows astronomers to see objects in that wavelength 130 million light-years away without having to build singularly massive and expensive telescopes specifically designed...
Primate Study Deems QDs Nontoxic — at Least for Short Term
BUFFALO, N.Y., May 22, 2012 — Cadmium-selenide quantum dots are nontoxic to primates over a one-year period, a new study found. The dots could hold great promise as tools for treating and detecting diseases such as cancer through nanomedicine.
3-D Laser Scanner Keeps Trains Safe
FREIBURG, Germany, May 21, 2012 — An infrared 3-D laser scanner that mounts on trains or cars can detects obstacles and unsafe conditions on the track or road. A team led by Heinrich Höfler and Harald Wölfelschneider of Fraunhofer Institute for Physical Measurement...
