By measuring how strongly electrons are bound together to form Cooper pairs in an iron-based superconductor, scientists at the U.S. DOE’s Brookhaven National Lab and other universities provide evidence supporting theories in which magnetism holds the key to this material’s ability to carry current with no resistance. Central to testing... Read More

A Queen's University Kingston researcher has created a star-trek-like human-scale 3D videoconferencing pod that allows people in different locations to video conference as if they are standing in front of each other. The technology researchers at the Queen's Human Media Lab have developed is called telehuman. Two people simply stand... Read More

Fraunhofer IMS researchers have developed special 3D sensors for aerial surveillance drones to ensure flawless aerobatics and prevent collisions. These unmanned aerial vehicles are a kind of mini-helicopter, with a wingspan of around two meters, and are a higly useful tool for police and crisis managers. They have a propeller... Read More

Using nanotechnology, scientists at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry have created the first cavity-filling composite that kills harmful bacteria and regenerates tooth structure lost to bacterial decay. According to Professor Huakun Xu, PhD, MS, the new composite is a revolutionary dental weapon to control harmful bacteria, which co-exist... Read More

Even though the photon is king in the age of high-speed computing, producing the finely tuned particles of light is a complex and time-consuming process, at least until now. Electrical and computer engineering Professor Amr Helmy and his team of engineers have identified a novel solution that will make the... Read More

Technology that can effectively detect smuggled radioactive materials is considered vital to U.S. security, as attacks involving nuclear devices are therefore possible. To support the nation’s nuclear-surveillance capabilities, researchers at the Georgia Tech Research Institute are developing ways to enhance the radiation-detection devices used at ports, border crossings, airports, etc....
