HAMBURG, Germany, June 14, 2013 — Experimental physicist Dr. Immanuel Bloch has received the 2013 Körber European Science Prize, presented by the Körber Foundation for his groundbreaking research in the field of quantum simulation with ultracold atoms.
Erupting ‘Nanovolcanoes’ For Drug Delivery
RALEIGH, N.C., June 14, 2013 — “Nanovolcanoes” carved out of a synthetic polymer with UV light can store and release precise amounts of materials, a feat suitable for drug-delivery technologies, its creators say.
Global Quantum Network Based on Optical Fibers
VIENNA, June 13, 2013 — A technique for increasing the time that quantum information is stored in glass fiber-coupled atoms could yield a global optical fiber-based quantum communication network, researchers in Austria have found.
New Material Improves Camera Sensitivity
LAUSANNE, Switzerland, June 13, 2013 — A new material with five times the light sensitivity of current silicon-based sensor technology could yield cameras sensitive enough to capture photos using only starlight.
Lasers Proposed to Expand Photon Thrust
TUSTIN, Calif., June 12, 2013 — Adapting high-power thin-disk laser technology could significantly expand applications for photon thrust in spacecraft propulsion, enabling improved maneuverability and extended mission lifetimes.
Laser-Driven Neutrons Could Thwart Nuclear Smugglers
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., June 11, 2013 — A single short-pulse laser-driven neutron source could make searching for nuclear materials smuggled in shipping containers much easier, an international experiment has demonstrated.
Optical ‘Antenna-in-a-Box’ Catches Single Molecules
BARCELONA, Spain, June 11, 2013 — An optical “antenna-in-a-box” capable of detecting and sensing individual molecules at high concentrations could provide a better understanding of biological and biochemical reactions to detect early stages of disease.
Alfano Awarded Laser Science Prize
NEW YORK, June 10, 2013 — Robert Alfano, distinguished professor of science and engineering at The City College of New York, has been awarded the 2013 Arthur L. Schawlow Prize in Laser Science by the American Physical Society (APS).
Device Bridges Optomechanics, Microfluidics
URBANA, Ill., June 10, 2013 — Whispering galleries — circular spaces beneath a dome that capture and amplify sound as quiet as a whisper — have inspired numerous scientific discoveries over the past several years. Now the phenomenon, discovered more than a century ago, has been...
CLEO Presents Cutting-Edge Research on Optics, Lasers
SAN JOSE, Calif., June 7, 2013 — Smartphone-based cancer detection, a telecom-based time cloak and UV-LEDs that slow food rot are just a few of the cutting-edge applications of optics and lasers that will be discussed next week at CLEO: 2013, the Conference on Lasers and...
Metamaterial Flexible Sheets Could Transform Optics
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., June 7, 2013 — A new metamaterial design that aims to replace bulky optical devices could improve IR thermal cameras, energy harvesting, and security screening and radar systems.
Firefighter Robot Paints 3-D Thermal Imaging Picture for Rescuers
SAN DIEGO, June 6, 2013 — An image processing technique that allows small Segway-like robotic vehicles to create 3-D thermal images of burning buildings in real time could help firefighters better assess structures and plan rescue missions.
Xenon Adds 3 Labs to Printed Electronics Test Network
WILMINGTON, Mass., June 6, 2013 — Pulsed light technology provider Xenon Corp. has announced that three laboratories have joined its Printed Electronics Test Center Network, bringing the total of participating labs to 25 worldwide.
’Temporal Cloaking’ for Communications
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., June 5, 2013 — An alternative “temporal cloaking” method that uses standard optical communications components has improved the time available for secure data transmission to nearly 46 percent, allowing digital data to be concealed at rates that could thwart...
Light-Controlled Gel Could Benefit Soft Robots
BERKELEY, Calif., June 4, 2013 — Inspired by the way plants grow toward light sources, bioengineers at the University of California, Berkeley, created a hydrogel that flexes in response to near-IR laser light. The achievement could be a step toward adding softness and flexibility...
Printing Innovations Improve Organic Electronics
MENLO PARK, Calif., June 4, 2013 — A printing technique that focuses on the physics of the process rather than the chemical makeup of the semiconductor provides a tenfold improvement in organic electronics. The findings could yield flexible electronic displays, tiny sensors and...
Same-Energy Electrons Pulsed from Laser Accelerator
GARCHING, Germany, June 3, 2012 — Electron pulses — all with nearly the same tunable energy — have been produced from a laser accelerator. The accomplishment makes electrons, which travel at a velocity close to the speed of light, easier to control as a tool for...
‘Metascreen’ forms ultrathin invisibility cloak
AUSTIN, Texas – A new invisibility cloak can hide 3-D objects from microwaves while in their natural environment, in all directions and from all of the observers’ positions. Most invisibility cloaks up to this point have been large, cumbersome...
Atoms hollowed by laser form novel plasma
YORK, England – A highly unusual plasma composed of hollow atoms has been created using one of the world’s most powerful lasers. The surprising result shows that a little-explored region of physics is now accessible through the unprecedented intensities being...
Efficiency record set in ultrahigh-speed communications
YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, N.Y. – Ultrafast supercomputers that operate at speeds 100 times faster than current systems may now be one step closer to reality, thanks to researchers at IBM working on a DARPA-funded program. They transmitted massive amounts of data with...
Electronic chips heal after laser blasts
PASADENA, Calif. – A new self-healing integrated chip could recover in microseconds from problems ranging from low battery power to total transistor failure. Engineers at California Institute of Technology demonstrated this self-healing capability in tiny power...
FAMOS aims to make OCT light sources more compact
VIENNA – Optical coherence tomography light sources will shrink to one-fifth the size of conventional devices with the help of a tapered laser being developed by the European Union project FAMOS (Functional Anatomical Molecular Optical Screening). ...
Flex-grid prevents network traffic jams
BARCELONA, Spain – A flexible-grid system that controls connections in optical networks can also redirect traffic to other networks, avoiding gridlock. Similar to how services like Google Maps use algorithms to determine the fastest route from point A to point...
Glasses-free 3-D could be coming to a mobile display near you
PALO ALTO, Calif. – While developing optical interconnect technology, engineers at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories realized what they had created could be much more: a multiangle, glasses-free 3-D display technology for mobile devices. Dr. David Fattal is a member of...
