A Harvard-led team of researchers has created a new type of nanoscale device that converts an optical signal into waves that travel along a metal surface. Significantly, the device can recognize specific kinds of polarized light and accordingly send the signal in one direction or another.

Rice’s team used the method to create an optical device in which incoming light could be directly controlled with light via a process known as “four-wave mixing.”
Technion scientists developed a new class of photonic materials, named Spin-Optical Metamaterial, which is based on nano-antennas controlling radiative modes assisted through the spin of light.
The product range includes single mode green laser diodes PL520 with 50mW optical output in the 515-530nm range and PL 515 at 30mW output power at 510-530nm. The PL450B is a single mode blue laser diode with 80mW optical output at 440-460nm.
Physicists analysing observations from the Herschel Space Observatory have shown that galaxies in the early Universe were cooler than those we see around us today.
A team at Tel Aviv University and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) has just discovered an exoplanet using a new method that relies on Einstein's special theory of relativity.
Their system uses simple, cheap detectors which have just a single pixel to sense light instead of the millions of pixels used in the imaging sensors of digital cameras.
Designed for extreme applications, the Optibase line of portable Media Gateway (MGW) encoders include MGW Premium
As device manufacturing technologiessizes shrink beyond 22 nm and increase in complexity, defects become more detrimental to device performance and harder to detect. PML scientists have developed a technique to create a 3D image quickly and non-destructively that can enable fast and non-destructive detection of defects at the nanometer level.
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign researchers have developed a cradle and app for the iPhone that uses the phone’s built-in camera and processing power as a biosensor to detect toxins, proteins, bacteria, viruses and other molecules.
The Digidata 1550 Digitizer features eight independent analog output channels to simultaneously send command waveforms to multiple cells at one time, essential for higher throughput toxicology experiments or to study synaptic function in complex neuronal networks.
Secondary Analysis by Dr. Rex of sub-set of PillCam COLON trial data shows sensitivity for detecting adenomas that are at least 6 mm and 10 mm to be 88% and 92% respectively and specificity to be 82% and 95% respectively
The solar photovoltaic (PV) market is poised to rise from the ashes of its 2011 crisis to grow to $155 billion in 2018, as market forces engineer a turnaround to a healthy 10.5% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), says Lux Research.
Featuring a built-in 1.4x extender that employs eight lens elements in four groups, the new Canon EF200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x enables users to instantly change the lens’s zoom range from 200–400 mm to 280–560 mm with the single flip of a switch.*
The large 20.3MP APS-C CMOS Sensor in the NX2000, produced entirely by Samsung in-house, produces extremely sharp and highly detailed images. Even in low light conditions, images burst with color.
The KMC 3 also serves as the initial product offering in the new Klipsch Music Center series.
