  • Infrared heavy-metal-free quantum dots deliver sensitive and fast sensors for eye-safe LIDAR applications

    The frequency regime lying in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) has very unique properties that make it ideal for several applications, such as being less affected by atmospheric scattering as well as being "eye-safe." These include Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR), a method for determining ranges and distances using lasers, space localization and mapping, adverse weather imaging for surveillance and automotive safety, environmental monitoring, and many others.

  • Physicists uncover electronic interactions mediated via spin waves

    Research by physicists at The City College of New York is being credited for a novel discovery regarding the interaction of electronic excitations via spin waves. The finding by the Laboratory for Nano and Micro Photonics (LaNMP) team headed by physicist Vinod Menon could open the door to future technologies and advanced applications such as optical modulators, all-optical logic gates, and quantum transducers. The work is reported in the journal Nature Materials.



  • Poland’s erratic boulders: from Frost Giant myths to scientific study

    Erratic boulders are scattered across northern Poland, transported by glaciers from far-off lands. Although the stones are now accounted for by science as the final remnants of ancient glaciation, in local folklore, they have always possessed their own dramatic explanation, blending history and mythology. A study funded by the Polish National Science Center and led The post Poland’s erratic boulders: from Frost Giant myths to scientific study appeared first on Archaeology News Online Magazine.

  • Rare Roman gold coin found in Scottish Borders to be displayed

    A rare 2,000-year-old Roman gold coin is now on display at the Trimontium Museum in Melrose. The aureus, dating from 114-117 CE, was unearthed at Newstead in the Scottish Borders and is now on loan from National Museums Scotland. The exhibition “Trajan’s Aureus” opens on 3 April and runs until the end of the year.
