New photodetector could improve night vision, thermal sensing and medical imaging

Using graphene, one of science's most versatile materials, engineers from the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering have invented a new type of photodetector that…

Tricky Feat with Stand-Up Molecule

For quite a while now, researchers have been able to produce structures from single atoms. One of the first examples was presented by D. M. Eigler and E. K….

Asymmetric plasmonic antennas deliver femtosecond pulses for fast optoelectronics

Classical electronics allows frequencies up to around 100 gigahertz. Optoelectronics uses electromagnetic phenomena starting at 10 terahertz. This range in…

'Stealth' material hides hot objects from infrared eyes

Hiding from such detectors could become much easier, thanks to a new cloaking material that renders objects — and people — practically invisible.

Scientists print sensors on gummi candy: creating microelectrode arrays on soft materials

Researchers from TUM and Forschungszentrum Jülich have successfully teamed up to perform inkjet printing onto a gummy bear. This might initially sound like…

Agrophotovoltaics Goes Global: from Chile to Vietnam
