Ultraviolet Doppler Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (UV-DOAS) is a long distance measurement technique used for detecting chemicals in the atmosphere. This technology is important in our modern world where ...

Introduction: Women make up about 19% of SPIE Optics and Photonics (one of the leading optics/photonics exhibitions and conferences) plenary speakers, representative of an overall lack of diversity in ...

Semiconductors are essential for modern day life as we know it. From their usage in integrated circuits for computers’ logic functions to satellite communications, semiconductors allow for efficient ...

Introducing Surface Plasmon Resonance Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is an optical detection technique commonly used to study biomolecular interactions. SPR is highly-sensitive to changes in the ...

A research team at Keio University in Japan devised a novel handheld viscosity sensor capable of quick, non-contact in situ measurements. Viscosity is a fundamental property for liquid analysis in a wide ...

In many tissue engineering experiments, a form of support is required to promote cell growth. Three dimensional scaffolds provide an artificial extracellular matrix, attachment sites for cells, support for ...

From Star Wars to Star Trek, the idea of interstellar travel has always fascinated us. Today, scientists and researchers are looking for ways to turn the vision of interstellar travel into reality. One of ...

Within the past few decades the ability to optimize information storage has become increasingly important. The use of data to guide decision-making continues to grow rapidly, while the amount of data is ...

Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna and TU Wien look to optimize optical neuroimaging with their innovative BRAD-OCT technique. Their method, published in the June edition of Biomedical Optics ...

Researchers at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, UK have developed a new design for optical tweezers using a single diode-coupled multicore fiber. The novel method promises a much more flexible ...
