Light detectors, also known as photodetectors are common not just in labs, but in our everyday appliances. From automatic doors to video cameras, photodetectors are established technologies that help make ...

Introduction to Superconductors (Traditional) Superconductivity was first discovered in 1911 by Heike Kamerlingh Onnes when he found Mercury to have an abrupt drop in electrical resistance at a temperature ...

Nanowires are truly one-dimensional structures that are long in one direction and short on the lateral dimension. This dimensional reduction gives rise to interesting new phenomena such as quantized ...

For any high-sensitivity laser application, it is essential that all necessary characteristics of the laser beam in use can be quantified and characterized beforehand. To this end, we have written ...

Spectroscopy has become an essential technique for material identification, chemical analysis, and quality control. Traditionally, spectrometers were large, lab-bound instruments. Advances in optics, ...

Terahertz imaging sits at the intersection of physics, materials science, and engineering, leveraging electromagnetic waves in the terahertz range to penetrate surfaces, identify molecular structures, and ...

The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) has introduced millions of connected devices into homes, factories, cities, and research labs. From smart thermostats and wearable monitors to industrial sensors ...

Hyperspectral imaging cameras represent a critical advancement in optical sensing, enabling the capture of detailed spectral information across a wide range of wavelengths. Unlike traditional imaging ...

Pyroelectric sensors are revolutionizing how we detect and measure heat and motion across industries. From powering smart security systems to enabling precise laser measurements, these versatile sensors ...

The nature of gravity, a force that governs the movements of planets and galaxies, remains one of the greatest mysteries in physics. While quantum mechanics has successfully explained the behavior of ...
