(Nanowerk Spotlight) For decades, researchers have sought to understand and harness the pyroelectric effect in biological materials. Pyroelectricity refers to the phenomenon where heating or cooling a ...

Engineers developed ultrathin electronic films that sense heat and other signals, and could reduce the bulk of conventional goggles and scopes. (Nanowerk News) MIT engineers have developed a technique ...

Detectors for use in analytical devices and in spectroscopy have been part of InfraTec's portfolio for over 20 years. From the very beginning, these are based on high-quality, single-crystal lithium ...

Engineers developed a technique to grow and peel ultrathin 'skins' of electronic material that could be used in applications such as night-vision eyewear and autonomous driving in foggy conditions.
