An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new compact galaxy group using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). The new group, designated CGG-z4, hosts two ...

The shape, size and optical properties of 3-dimensional nanostructures can now be simulated in advance before they are produced directly with high precision on a wide variety of surfaces. Nanoprobes ...

The properties of carbon-based nanomaterials can be altered and engineered through the deliberate introduction of certain structural 'imperfections'. The challenge, however, is to control the number ...

Nanodiamond fragments that have been optically trapped are being used as intracellular sensors by researchers to create a new method for examining the complex processes within living cells. The study ...

Dynamic control of terahertz (THz) waves at-will with an ultracompact device is important for THz technologies in biomedical imaging, telecommunications, detection, and beyond. However, tunable THz ...

With the increasing threat of sophisticated counterfeits, what is a security device that can combat against them? It has been known that a technology that has never existed before can be used in ...

Technique could lead to new classes of materials that can bend light, such as for those used in cloaking devices Northwestern University researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind technique for ...

Galvanically (that is, optically or electromagnetically) isolated 4- to 20-mA current loops offer robust noise immunity and tolerate long cable runs. These advantages, combined with simple unshielded ...

Master Bond EP30-2LB is an optically clear epoxy that does not permit UV light transmission. EP30-2LB is a user friendly system that has a non-critical ten to one mix ratio by weight. EP30-2LB cures ...

As a society, we’ve largely come together to agree that laser pointers are mostly useless. They’re now the preserve of university lecturers and those destined to wind up in a jail cell for harassing ...
