Charles Rosenblatt, professor of physics and macromolecular science at Case Western Reserve University, and his research group have developed a method of 3D optical imaging of anisotropic fluids such liquid crystals, with volumetric resolution one thousand times smaller than existing techniques. A research paper detailing the team's findings appeared in the September 21 advanced online publication of Nature Physics. The print version will be available soon.
A new research field called transformation optics may usher in a host of radical advances including a cloak of invisibility and ultra-powerful microscopes and computers by harnessing nanotechnology and "metamaterials."
ZyGEM Corp. Ltd. today announced that it has entered into an agreement with the Advalytix product team of Olympus Life Science Research Europa GmbH to produce a private-label line of DNA extraction products. The collabor...
With the Primo Star iLED, Carl Zeiss is introducing a new fluorescence microscope which enables the fast and reliable detection of tuberculosis. Together with FIND, the Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics, which co-developed the microscope, the optics company will be presenting the system at the 39th World Union Conference on Lung Health in Paris from 17 to 20 October 2008.
SEMATECH engineers and the industry at large have made significant advances in moving forward the infrastructure that will prepare extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) for cost-effective manufacturing, according to pap...
The Veeco Chair will support the work of an eminent scholar in the College of Engineering or the Division of Mathematical, Life, and Physical Sciences who develops or uses scanning probe microscopy to advance nanoscale characterization in their field. Veeco will also donate a scanning probe microscope system to support the chairholder's work.
Recently, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires have drawn major interest because of their semiconducting nature and unique optical and piezoelectric properties. Various applications for ZnO nanowires have been conceived, including...
Scientists are puzzled by the nanobubbles that can develop on surfaces under water. It should be impossible for them to exist but nevertheless they remain intact for hours. They are something of a mystery, yet it is possible to manipulate the development of these bubbles, according to PhD candidate Shangjiong Yang at the University of Twente.
Acclaimed scientists and photographers from around the world will share their scientific research, discoveries and observations of natural wonders in an international photography exhibition opening next month at Rochester Institute of Technology.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory are part of collaborative team that's used a brand new instrument at the DOE's Spallation Neutron Source to probe iron-arsenic compounds, the &qu...
