New laser technology shows promise for use in continuous-wave LiDAR systems
First-of-its-kind drug delivery technology is absorbable by the body, avoiding the need for surgical removal
Sensing device could be used to detect a variety of chemical tracers, including those produced by patients with conditions such as asthma and kidney disease
An enzyme that turns the hydrogen in air into electricity could provide a new source of energy
A plasma wakefield accelerator equipped with an advanced electron injection method could help miniaturize X-ray free-electron lasers to a fraction of their current size
New device could shed fresh light on the processes that occur as hydrocarbons burn
Quantum "turnout" device has a switching speed four to five orders of magnitude faster than that of current solid-state transistors
High-precision X-ray crystallography measurements examine how a photopharmacological drug binds to and releases from protein molecules
By reducing the contribution of other noises, researchers have achieved a record displacement sensitivity in laser interferometry
BCS equations for superconductivity need to be modified for materials that have very slow-moving charges
