Very often in science, the unexpected discovery turns out to be the most significant. Rice University Professor Junichiro Kono and his team weren't looking for a breakthrough in the transmission of terahertz signals, but there it was: a plasmonic material that would, with adjustments to its temperature and/or magnetic field, either stop a terahertz beam cold or let it pass completely.
A new generation of optical sensors is enabling the development of robust, long-lasting, lighting-fast trace gas detectors for use in a wide range of industrial, security and domestic applications.
Four Door Media, Inc., designer, manufacturer, and distributor of specialized computer based products and accessories, today announced that it has signed a licensing agreement with racing legend Carroll Shelby/Carroll Shelby Licensing, Inc. The company is now authorized to design its car-shaped, wireless and wired optical computer mouse products, Road Mice(TM) in the shape of Shelby's current and classic vehicles. With the new agreement, Four Door Media will develop and market various Shelby vehicle replicas such as the Shelby GT-500 and Shelby Cobra that function as computer mice or pointing devices.
After being exhibited in New York, the priceless oil paintings move on to a gallery in Paris and then to a museum in Berlin
Materials with highly nonlinear optical (NLO) characteristics are currently of great technological and scientific interest for diverse applications. Currently, there exists a wide range of non-linear optical materials with varied wavelengths, damage thresholds and optical characteristics. The current focus is to develop materials that meet all requirements such as faster response, high damage threshold and wide transparency range coupled with adaptability, processing ability and the ability to interface with other materials. Non-linear optical materials are expected to play an important role in the transformation of information storage and transmission from electrical to optical domain. Robust growth in demand for high bandwidth fiber optic networking infrastructure is expected to boost the demand for Non-Linear Optical Materials.
OKI Electric Cable (TOKYO:5815) today announced the launch of "Clean Eye Camera Link Cable™ ". Combination of the company's state- of-the-art low skew cable and the newly developed unique and low power consumption equalizing technology (patent pending) enables up to 20m data transmission at 85MHz which is twice the distance specified in Camera Link interface standard. This halves the power consumption as compared to a conventional repeater. The company plans to commercialize this product in January 2010.
