The use of gas sensors in detecting, monitoring, and evaluating combustion-related toxic and exhaust gases has attracted much interest. This technique finds practical application at both industrial and domestic levels as a tool for environmental protection and energy-saving.

HALIFAX, NS / ACCESSWIRE / May 31, 2022 / Meta Materials Inc. ("META®") (NASDAQ:MMAT)(FSE:MMAT), a developer of high-performance functional materials and nanocomposites, and PPG (NYSE:PPG) (together with

Staring through a microscope at samples of material for hours on end, attempting to locate monolayers, is one of the most laborious and intimidating tasks for undergraduate assistants in university research laboratories.

Metalenses are flat lenses that use metasurfaces to focus light. The metasurfaces are a series of artificial antennae that manipulate the optical response of the incident light, including its amplitude phase and polarization.

For their distant detection, minimum invasion, tolerance to electromagnetic interferences, and excellent resolution, optical-based sensors provide appealing alternatives in temperature monitoring for biological diagnostics. This article will look at a recent study published in Light: Science & Applications.

A new system called FS-BOC facilitates the fabrication of connections between photonic components and board-level circuits and optical fibers in photonic chips.

Researchers have developed a new way to apply antireflective (AR) coatings to 3D printed multi-lens systems as small as 600 microns in diameter.


A new method to put on antireflective (AR) coatings to 3D printed multi-lens systems that are as tiny as 600 µm in diameter has been developed by scientists.

In an article recently published in the journal Optical Materials, the researchers presented the utility of the double metal cladding waveguide technique towards the preparation of a perovskite solar cell with light trappers.

Industry technical leaders met in Long Beach, Calif. for the NGA Glass Conference: Long Beach.
