A new generation of specialty optical fibers has been developed by physicists at the University of Bath, UK, to cope with the challenges of data transfer expected to arise in the future age of quantum ...

Due to their very high efficiency in transporting electric charges from light, perovskites are known as the next generation material for solar panels and LED displays. A team led by Dr. Lei Su at ...

Despite the modern world relying heavily on digital optical communication, there has not been a significant improvement in the minimum attenuation—a measure of the loss of optical power per kilometer ...

In the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, researchers at Jilin University now report a way to measure the electrical conductivity of such fluids using volumes as small as 50 nanoliters.

Researchers have developed a new optical sensor that provides a simple way to achieve real-time detection of extremely low levels of arsenic in water. Researchers have developed a new optical sensor ...
