Velodyne LiDAR Brings World’s Most Advanced LiDAR Sensor
Velodyne LiDAR Brings World’s Most Advanced LiDAR Sensor. Adding the world’s most advanced LiDAR sensor to the Renovo AWare ecosystem provides fleet operators with the range, resolution and accuracy needed to guide autonomous vehicles reliably and safely through complex driving situations and conditions.
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 can work with more types of light than its current state-of-the-art counterparts. The device also has superior sensing and imaging capabilities.
Cystic Fibrosis Therapy Improved by Lipid-Based Nanoparticles
Researchers at Oregon State University and Oregon Health & Science University are working on a treatment that holds great promise for improving the lives of cystic fibrosis patients. Cystic fibrosis is a progressive genetic disorder that results in persistent lung infection and afflicts 30,000 people in the U.S., with about 1,000 new cases diagnosed every year.
Clean Room Facility Brings 8-Inch Fabrication Capability to Cardiff University
Local business leaders across South Wales attended the launch of the new facility, which offers a range of solutions for companies working to develop 21st century technologies. Guests were able to learn more about the refurbished 225 square metre Clean Room facility and the role it plays in assisting businesses across South Wales as part of CS Connected – the world’s first Compound Semiconductor cluster.
Algae Outbreaks Increased by Nanomaterials
The last 10 years have seen a surge in the use of tiny substances called nanomaterials in agrochemicals like pesticides and fungicides. The idea is to provide more disease protection and better yields for crops, while decreasing the amount of toxins sprayed on agricultural fields.
Research team discovers drug compound that stop cancer cells from spreading
Research team discovers drug compound that stops cancer cells from spreading Via a mouse model, OHSU physician-scientists lead effort to hone a drug that inhibits cancer cells from spreading to other areas in the body Fighting cancer means killing cancer cells....
Low Cost Solar Cells for Mass Production
An international team of university researchers today reports solving a major fabrication challenge for perovskite cells — the intriguing potential challengers to silicon-based solar cells. These crystalline structures show great promise because they can absorb almost all wavelengths of light. Perovskite solar cells are already commercialized on a small scale, but recent vast improvements in their power conversion efficiency (PCE) are driving interest in using them as low-cost alternatives for solar panels.
Closing the gap: On the road to terahertz electronics
A team headed by the TUM physicists Alexander Holleitner and Reinhard Kienberger has succeeded for the first time in generating ultrashort electric pulses on a chip using metal antennas only a few nanometers in size, then running the signals a few millimeters above the surface and reading them in again a controlled manner. The technology enables the development of new, powerful terahertz components.
Solid Polymer Electrolyte for Lithium Batteries Increased Safety & Performance
Specifically, Zhu and his research team developed a solid polymer electrolyte that can be used in lithium ion batteries to replace the current liquid electrolyte to improve the safety and performance of lithium batteries.
New Covalent Organic Frameworks with Precise Control
covalent organic frameworks (COFs), were discovered in 2005, but their quality has been poor and preparation methods are uncontrolled. Now a Northwestern University research team is the first to produce high-quality versions of these materials, demonstrate their superior properties and control their growth. The researchers developed a two-step growth process that produces organic polymers with crystalline, two-dimensional structures.
X-ray laser opens new view on Alzheimer proteins
A new experimental method permits the X-ray analysis of amyloids, a class of large, filamentous biomolecules which are an important hallmark of diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. An international team of researchers headed by DESY scientists has used a powerful X-ray laser to gain insights into the structure of different amyloid samples.
Broadcom Extends Server Storage Offering
Broadcom Inc. today announced it is extending its collaboration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) in server storage offerings and will showcase them this week at HPE Discover. Broadcom will highlight benefits of the SFF-TA-1001 specification commonly known as the U.3 reference platform with a U.3 universal drive cage demonstration featuring Toshiba U.3-enabled NVMe™, SAS, and SATA drives.
