Fiber-Optic Probe Can See Molecular Bonds
In “Avengers: Endgame,” Tony Stark warned Scott Lang that sending him into the quantum realm and bringing him back would be a “billion-to-one cosmic fluke.” In reality, shrinking a light beam to a nanometer-sized point to spy on quantum-scale light-matter interactions and retrieving the information is not any easier. Now, engineers at the University of California, Riverside, have […]
New Resin Boards for Tri-Color E-Paper Displays Enable Screen Operation in Demanding Conditions
Pervasive Displays (PDi), a world leader in e-paper displays (EPDs), is pleased to announce its new range of rugged tri-color displays, aimed at the fast-growing market for portable equipment designed for use in demanding conditions. An increasing desire to deploy technology in situations where impacts are common, means individual components must be exceptionally robust. Pervasive […]
New Mechanism Allows Lower Energy Requirement for OLED Displays
Scientists from RIKEN and the University of California San Diego, in collaboration with international partners have found a way to significantly reduce the amount of energy required by organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). OLEDs have attracted attention as potential replacements for liquid crystal diodes, since they offer advantages such as being flexible, thin, and not […]
Organic Laser Diodes Move from Dream to Reality
Researchers from Japan have demonstrated that a long-elusive kind of laser diode based on organic semiconductors is indeed possible, paving the way for the further expansion of lasers in applications such as biosensing, displays, healthcare, and optical communications. Long considered a holy grail in the area of light-emitting devices, organic laser diodes use carbon-based organic […]
LED Holders for More Attractive and Compact Solutions in Track and Spot Lighting
TE Connectivity (TE) is introducing the LUMAWISE Drive LED Holder Type Z50 – DALI-2 series for chip-on-board (COB) LEDs used in track and spot lighting. Designed for 48VDC input, the new holder incorporates DC/DC constant current LED driver functionality into a low profile LED holder enabling lighting designers to develop more compact, cost-effective, and better-looking […]
Nature Inspires a Novel New Form of Computing, Using Light
McMaster researchers have developed a simple and highly novel form of computing by shining patterned bands of light and shadow through different facets of a polymer cube and reading the combined results that emerge. The material in the cube reads and reacts intuitively to the light in much the same way a plant would turn […]
Why You Should Care About Better Fiber Optics
Fibre optic research can give us better medical equipment, improved environmental monitoring, more media channels—and maybe better solar panels. “Optical fibres are remarkably good at transmitting signals without much loss in the transfer,” says Professor Ursula Gibson at NTNU’s Department of Physics. However: “Glass fibres are good up to a wavelength of about 3 microns. […]
Compact Yellow Tri-Color E-Paper Displays
Pervasive Displays (PDi) announces its new line of compact black, white and yellow displays. Ranging in size from 1.54 to 4.37-inches, the displays give product and service designers additional flexibility by being able to display text and images in yellow, as well as black and white. E-paper displays (EPDs), commonly found in e-readers, have been […]
