News Future of LEDs Gets Boost from Verification of Localization States Within Indium Gallium Nitride Quantum Wells
“Light-emitting diodes made of indium gallium nitride provide better luminescence efficiency than many of the other materials used to create blue and green LEDs. But a big challenge of working with InGaN is the material is known for dislocation density …
“Certain materials, like copper, conduct electricity very well. Other materials, like glass, do not. A certain kind of material, called a topological insulator, acts partially like one and partially like the other ― it behaves like a conductor at its surface …
“Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology have demonstrated a detector made from graphene that could revolutionize the sensors used in next-generation space telescopes. The findings were recently published in the scientific journal Nature Astronomy. Beyond superconductors, there are few materials …
“Göttingen researchers develop a new method allowing ten-fold improvement in optical resolution Researchers at the University of Göttingen have developed a new method that takes advantage of the unusual properties of graphene to electromagnetically interact with fluorescing (light-emitting) molecules. This …
“4:45pm ET Update: According to the Indian Space Agency, ISRO, the lander’s descent proceeded normally until an altitude of 2.1km above the Moon. After this time communication was lost with the spacecraft. Data from the descent will …
