Researchers have developed a compact infrared spectrometer. It's small enough to fit on a computer chip but can still open up interesting possibilities -- in space and in everyday life. Nowadays, a ...

Physicists in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have created a compact laser that emits extremely bright, short pulses of light in a useful but difficult-to ...

Researchers at ETH have developed a very compact infrared spectrometer that is small enough to fit on a computer chip and still provides "interesting possibilities." The researchers say that the chip ...

Nowadays, a mobile phone can do almost anything: take photos or video, send messages, determine its present location, and of course transmit telephone conversations. With these versatile devices, it ...

First introduced during Photonics West in San Francisco, California: the AvaSpec-Mini-NIR! With its 900-1750 nm wavelength range, this miniature, versatile near-infrared spectrometer can be used in ...

A new reconfigurable device that emits patterns of thermal infrared light in a fully controllable manner could one day make it possible to collect waste heat at infrared wavelengths and turn it into ...

This infrared tranmitter is intended for use with this infrared receiver. It works with 2 – 1.5V batteries or a 3V lithium battery. To give a compact infrared device assembly and still a good ...

A new type of compact infrared laser promises to make it easier to identify specific molecules at very low concentrations within complex chemical samples. That is the claim of physicists in Germany ...

New tech will charge multiple devices in a room, via transmitters that will one day hide in your light fixtures. Jessica Dolcourt VP, Content Operations and Commerce, CNET Group and CNET Labs Jessica ...
