High-voltage disconnectors operate under strong electromagnetic radiation for long periods, making it prone to incomplete opening and closing. Current electronic sensors used to detect their status ...

Imaging technology has transformed how we observe the universe—from mapping distant galaxies with radio telescope arrays to unlocking microscopic details inside living cells. Yet despite decades of ...

A fiber optic sensor is a type of sensor that uses the optical fiber itself as a means of transmitting the signal from the remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals. A sensor based on ...

New research has shown how the quantum mechanical principle of strong coupling opens unrivalled possibilities for designing optical filters. A team of researchers from the University of Cologne, ...

Researchers led by Dr. Xin Liping from the Space-based Multi-band Astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) research team, National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences ...

Using their Mosquito fabrication method, the researchers created a fan-out pattern of multiple thin light paths inside a thin sheet of PDMS. This created four optical channels that could be used for ...
