Light Augments Conventional Methods of Mosquito Control
NOTRE DAME, Ind., June 21, 2017 — Exposure to just ten minutes of white light presented at timed intervals during the late daytime, dusk, dawn and throughout the night could suppress biting and manipulate flight behavior in the Anopheles gambiae mosquito, the major vector for transmission of malaria in Africa. Researchers believe that a photic exposure method could be used to reinforce current insect control techniques or be implemented as a standalone approach. Critical behaviors exhibited by the species are Anopheles
Multispectral Imaging Reveals Ancient Hebrew Inscription
TEL AVIV, Israel, June 20, 2017 — Multispectral imaging techniques have unearthed an invisible inscription on the back of a pottery shard that has been on display at The Israel Museum for half a century. The ostracon — ink-inscribed pottery shard — dates back to ca. 600...
Metamaterial-Enhanced Imaging Technique Could Reduce Acquisition Time
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia and LEIDEN, Netherlands, June 20, 2017 — A hybrid metasurface structure, comprised of a 2D metamaterial surface and a high permittivity dielectric substrate, has been shown to enhance the performance of an ultra-high field MRI scanner. The ultrathin structure could potentially be used to...
Novel Photopatterning Approach for OLEDs Inveiled

GREENBELT, Md., June 20, 2017 — NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center has announced that the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) survived impact with a meteor in 2014. On October 13, 2014, the LROC, which normally produces...
AI Analyzes Images Taken Under Severe Conditions, Increases Clarity
TOKYO, June 19, 2017 — A multimodal image fusion technology uses artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically combine visible images taken by standard cameras with non-visible images taken by specialized devices such as thermal or terahertz cameras. Using AI, the...
Nanophotonic Processor Uses Optics to Speed Deep Learning Computations
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 16, 2017 — Using light instead of electricity to power neural networks could improve the speed and efficiency of certain deep learning computations, especially tasks that involve repeated multiplications of matrices, which can be computationally intensive for...
Novel Material May Allow Everyday 3D Holography
MELBOURNE, Australia, June 15, 2017 — What could be the world’s thinnest hologram could also be the harbinger of what’s to come in consumer electronics, by paving the way for 3D holography compact enough to be integrated into everyday electronics like smartphones, laptops...
Laser-Induced Graphene Inhibits Biofouling, Kills Bacteria
HOUSTON, June 14, 2017 — Laser-induced graphene (LIG) has been shown to be effective in resisting biofouling (the buildup of biological material on wet surfaces) and, when used as electrodes with a small applied voltage, in destroying bacteria. “This form of graphene...
Optical Approach Delivers Fast, Scalable Data Transmission
KARLSRUHE, Germany, June 14, 2017 — Microresonator soliton frequency combs have been shown to considerably increase the performance of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) techniques in optical communications. The technology could be used to develop efficient, highly scalable...
Low-Cost Synthetic Material Produces White Light That Imitates Sunlight
TURKU, Finland, June 13, 2017 — Persistent luminescence materials are used in everyday glow-in-the-dark applications and show high potential for medical imaging, night-vision surveillance, and enhancement of solar cells. The materials that make these applications possible contain...
Underwater Touchpad Will Open Window Further Into the Dolphin Mind
NEW YORK, June 13, 2017 — An underwater computer touchscreen, through which dolphins at the National Aquarium in Baltimore, Maryland are able to interact, will be used to investigate dolphin intelligence and communication by providing the sea mammals with choice and control...
Hybrid Imaging Method Delivers Panoramic Scan of a Live Animal
DURHAM, N.C., June 12, 2017 — A hybrid imaging technique, dubbed Single-Impulse Panoramic Photoacoustic Computed Tomography (SIP-PACT), combines light and ultrasound to provide a full cross-sectional view of a small animal’s internal functions in real time, with enough...
Photons and Electrons Produce Hybrid Light-Matter Fluid
MONTREAL, June 9, 2017 — Light is composed of waves, but it can also behave like a liquid. In certain circumstances it can ripple and spiral around obstacles. These liquid properties of light emerge when the photons that form the light wave interact with each other....
Purdue and Microsoft to Collaborate on Quantum Computer
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., June 9, 2017 — Purdue University and Microsoft Corp. have signed a five-year agreement to develop a useable quantum computer. Purdue is one of four international universities in the collaboration. Michael Manfra, Purdue University's Bill and Dee O'Brien Chair...
Imaging Technique Could Improve Tumor Margin Assessment
LONDON, June 7, 2017 — Use of Cerenkov luminescence imaging (CLI) could provide a more accurate technique for assessing resection margins during breast-conserving surgery, a primary treatment for early-stage breast cancer. CLI combines optical and molecular imaging by...
Quantum Emitters Generate Single Photons on Demand
CAMBRIDGE, England, June 6, 2017 — Quantum light emitters have been observed previously in atomically thin layers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). However, they have been found at random locations within the host material and usually in low densities, hindering experiments...
