NeoPhotonics Corp of San Jose, CA, a vertically integrated designer and manufacturer of both indium phosphide (InP) and silica-on-silicon photonic integrated circuit (PIC)-based modules and subsystems for high-speed communications networks, ...
There's promising news from the front on efforts to produce fuels through artificial photosynthesis. A new study by Berkeley Lab researchers at the Joint Center for Artificial Photosynthesis (JCAP) shows that nearly 90-percent of the ...
Food packaging serves multiple purposes. It protects the foodstuff from moisture, dust, microbes, and other contaminants, it facilitates easy handling during transit and storage, guards against any physical or chemical damage and at stores ...
(Phys.org) —Like a spring connecting two swings, light can act as photon glue that binds together the quantum mechanical properties of two vastly different materials. The effect could harness the most useful characteristics from ...
Printing could be a method whereby text and pictures are a unit reproduced on varied materials. There are a unit completely different printing ways and looking on the printing methodology differing kinds of inks are a unit used. Inks ...
