Light and Color Measure Cell O2 in Real Time
ST. LOUIS, March 27, 2013 — A real-time technique that uses light and color to measure oxygen delivery to individual red blood cells could enable researchers to study the process in relation to diseases and their treatments.
Wang to Study Cellular Oxygen Consumption Under NSF Grant
ST. LOUIS, March 22, 2013 — To determine a cell’s metabolism, scientists need to know how much oxygen it consumes, but current technology limits this study to groups of cells, not individual cells. Now, Dr. Lihong Wang plans to change that.
Problem-Based Learning in Photonics Education
Mar 1, 2013 — “Your graduates know plenty of technical facts, but they don’t know how to use them to solve problems they face on the job.” “Can’t you do something to teach these kids to write and speak effectively?” “Why...
High-Speed Imager Developer Wins NSF Award
BALTIMORE, Feb. 22, 2013 — A Johns Hopkins engineer has won a National Science Foundation award for his work in developing a high-speed imaging system designed to continuously record images at a rate of more than 100 million frames per second — 100 times more rapidly than...
Spradley, Jackson Appointed to JDSU Executive Positions
MILPITAS, Calif., Jan. 11, 2013 — JDSU announced Thursday two executive appointments, naming Susan Spradley as senior vice president and general manager of the Communications Test and Measurement (CommTest) business segment, and Rex Jackson as the company’s executive vice president...
Shasta Crystals to Research YAG Fibers
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 3, 2013 — Shasta Crystals has received a National Science Foundation Phase I grant to perform research into the feasibility of growing doped YAG fibers for improved high-power fiber laser performance.
The other side of the apocalypse
Dec 28, 2012 — We seem to have survived the end of the world, though we can hardly say we’ve survived it unscathed. Even in the context of an already difficult year, the past several months have felt like a brickbat to the head. A bruising campaign season...
SPIE Urges Leaders to Avoid Fiscal Cliff, Support Science
BELLINGHAM, Wash., Dec. 12, 2012 — What do we want? A bipartisan plan to avoid the fiscal cliff that also supports science and education. When do we want it? Now.
Dark energy camera takes first pictures
CERRO TOLOLO, Chile – After eight years in the making, the most powerful sky-mapping machine ever created, the 570-megapixel Dark Energy Camera (DECam), achieved first light on Sept. 12. The camera was constructed at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia,...
Dark Energy Camera Records First Images
CERRO TOLOLO, Chile, Sept. 17, 2012 — After eight years of planning and construction, the most powerful sky-mapping machine ever created, the 570-megapixel Dark Energy Camera (DECam), achieved first light on Sept. 12. The camera was constructed at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory...
Robotic camera mimics eye movement
ATLANTA – Piezoelectric materials that allow a robot’s camera eye to replicate the muscle motion of a human eye could help make safer, more effective robotic tools for MRI-guided surgery and robotic rehabilitation. The biologically inspired...
Method ‘Tags and Tracks’ DNA Looping
DALLAS, Aug. 20, 2012 — A “tag and track” method using fluorescent molecules not only sheds light on how DNA loops form, but also might be adapted to screen drugs for effectiveness against certain viruses that shuffle genetic material, such as HIV.
Artificial leaf could charge up developing world
Aug 1, 2012 — The first practical artificial leaf – composed of silicon, nickel and cobalt – can convert sunlight into chemical fuel, a milestone in the drive for sustainable energy that mimics the process of photosynthesis. Unlike earlier devices,...
NSF Award Creates Partnership
Aug 1, 2012 — The National Science Foundation awarded $3.3 million to the University of Texas at El Paso and the University of California, Santa Barbara, to establish a long-term partnership for materials science and engineering research, including solar energy....
RIT, Raytheon to Develop Advanced IR Detectors
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Aug. 1, 2012 — The Rochester Institute of Technology was awarded a $1.2 million National Science Foundation award to develop, fabricate and test a new family of detectors grown on silicon wafer substrates by Raytheon Vision Systems.
Tabletop device generates all wavelengths in single beam
ARLINGTON, Va. – For the first time, a device small enough to fit on a single laboratory table has converted a coherent, directed light beam generated from more than 5000 low-energy photons into one high-energy x-ray photon. “This device can be a valuable tool...
Robotic Camera Mimics Eye Movement
ATLANTA, July 9, 2012 — Piezoelectric materials that allow a robot’s camera eye to replicate the muscle motion of a human eye could help make safer, more effective robotic tools for MRI-guided surgery and robotic rehabilitation.
Single entangled photon creation unlocked
ATLANTA – A new technique can produce single photons with specific properties more efficiently and about 1000 times faster than the current methods, an important advance for several research areas, including quantum information processing and quantum network...
Lidar Reveals Ruins of Lost City
HOUSTON, June 11, 2012 — An airborne laser mapping project involving billions of laser shots has unveiled archaeological ruins in a remote region of Honduras that may contain the legendary lost city of Ciudad Blanca, or White City.
Tabletop Device Creates All Wavelengths in 1 Beam
ARLINGTON, Va., June 7, 2012 — More than 5000 low-energy photons have been converted into one high-energy x-ray photon. The coherent, directed light beam was generated for the first time using a device small enough to fit on a single laboratory table.
$3.3M NSF Award Creates Research Partnership
EL PASO, Texas, May 31, 2012 — The National Science Foundation awarded $3.3 million to the University of Texas at El Paso and the University of California, Santa Barbara, to establish a long-term partnership for materials science and engineering research.
