Doctors' quest to see what is happening inside a living body has been hampered by the limits on detecting tiny components of internal structures and events. Now a team of Stanford University School of Medicine researchers has developed a new type of imaging system that can illuminate tumors in living subjects-getting pictures with a precision of nearly one-trillionth of a meter.
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today launched a number of innovative new products at Analytica 2008, the world's largest laboratory technology tradeshow, taking place in Munich, Germany, from April 1 - 4.
The future of computing is under the spotlight at the Institute of Physics' Condensed Matter and Materials Physics conference at the Royal Holloway College of the University of London on 26-28 March.
Brion Technologies today announced that STMicroelectronics is producing 55 nanometer (nm) and 45nm devices using Brion's Tachyon(TM) OPC+ optical proximity correction (OPC) solution. This follows the successful completion of the companies' earlier OPC joint development program.
Bruker AXS, a leading global provider of advanced X-ray solutions for life and advanced materials sciences, announced that it is again awarding its annual Excellence in X-ray Diffraction (XRD) scholarship -- based on unique experiments performed by university students.
Sun Microsystems, Inc. today announced that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded Sun $44.29 million funding for a five and a half-year research project focused on microchip interconnectivity via on-chip optical networks enabled by Silicon photonics and proximity communication.
A cheap alternative to silicon solar cells can be found in dye-sensitised solar cells. This type of cell imitates the natural conversion of sunlight into energy by, for instance, plants and light-sensitive bacteria. Annemarie Huijser has succeeded in substantially improving a process in this type of solar cell, which is similar to Gratzel cells. Huijser will receive her PhD on this subject from TU Delft on Tuesday 25 March.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of Decision Resources report "Diagnostic Imaging Market: Recent Advances and Future Trends" to their offering.
With the predicted ramping up of nanotechnology based materials over the next decade, expectations are high that demand for high-tech materials will also skyrocket. Already the evidence is present for a revolution in the manufacture of materials based on nano-engineered structures.
Already credited with making vapor chambers (a once exotic heat sink technology) thin, light and affordable, Celsia Technologies today introduces its second generation NanoSpreader.
