NEWARK, N.J., July 2, 2008 – Acquiring carbon offsets is an essential component for reducing global warming. As more organizations and businesses start trading in carbon offsets, the need for accurate measurement of carbon emissions becomes increasingly important. A new ultra-sensitive laser-assisted ratio analyzer (LARA) is capable of measuring even slight changes in carbon 14 (C-14), an isotope of carbon. Developed by Dr. Daniel Murnick, professor of physics at Rutgers University, along with research associate Ozgur Dogru and graduate student Erhan Ilkmen, the technology measures small changes in C-14, which...Read full article

    photonics
    The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
