If you could squeeze two or three times more cellular telephone conversations into the same amount of bandwidth, how much would that be worth? To most wireless companies, the answer is, millions of ...

Scientists have used a focused beam of electrons to create some of the smallest nanowires ever made. The discovery gives a boost to efforts aimed at creating electrical circuits on mono-layered ...

Light is pushy. The physical pressure of photons is what allows for solar sail space missions that ride on sunlight, and what allows for dreams of lasers that will push those sails even faster. And ...

(Nanowerk News) Junhao Lin, a Vanderbilt University Ph.D. student and visiting scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), has found a way to use a finely focused beam of electrons to create ...

Understanding how helical, curved beams operate — how their spiral cuts accommodate angular and parallel misalignment, axial motion, and system vibrations — is the key to knowing how they will perform ...

Laser powder bed fusion (LBPF), a 3D printing technique commonly used to make metal parts, creates large thermal gradients between areas hit by the laser and areas not being struck. This creates pools ...

Over the years, through projects such as the Green School and homes at the Green Village, bamboo has become an increasingly popular material in Bali, Indonesia. While design firms in Bali such as ...

Best suited for rich scattering environment. A linearly arranged and equally spaced array of antennas forms the basic structure of a beam former. In order to form a beam, each user's information ...
