Researchers Tune Graphene to Manipulate Electromagnetic Radiation

 

Using a large graphene sheet, scientists from the Rice University and the Institute of Laser Engineering at Osaka University have found a way to control the transmission of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between terahertz and midinfrared. Experiments showed that voltage applied to a sheet of graphene on a silicon-based substrate can turn it into a shutter for both … [Read more...]

NASA Launches X-Ray Telescope

 

NASA successfully launched its NuSTAR telescope, which will observe the cosmos using X-rays. NuSTAR, short for Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, operates in the range of the electromagnetic spectrum which is more energetic than visible light. Its primary mission is expected to last for two years, and its main scientific tasks are to conduct a survey of black holes, map … [Read more...]

FCC to Review Mobile-Phone Radiation Safety

 

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission plans to ask whether its standards protect people from mobile-phone radiation, a question it hasn’t posed in 15 years, as people use smartphones for longer, more frequent calls. A formal enquiry would review the FCC’s standards with the concerns of more frequent use, longer-use, new mobile-phone technology, and use by children in … [Read more...]

Consortium Completes Test of New Oil Sands Recovery Process

 

The consortium of Laricina Energy, Nexen Inc., Suncor Energy and Harris Corporation has completed initial proof-of-concept testing of a unique oil sands extraction method that has the potential to improve environmental performance and reduce development costs, according to Nexen. The $33 million program's initial phase testing of the Enhanced Solvent Extraction Incorporating … [Read more...]

Device Injects Medicine without Using Needles

 

MIT researchers have engineered a device that delivers a tiny, high-pressure jet of medicine through the skin without the use of a hypodermic needle. The jet-injection system delivers a range of doses to variable depths in a highly controlled manner. According to MIT, the design is built around a mechanism called a Lorentz-force actuator — "a small, powerful magnet surrounded … [Read more...]

New Point-to-Point Interface that Reduces EMI & RFI in LCD Panels

 

Parade Technologies Ltd. has announced a new type of point-to-point high speed interface for use within LCD display panels. The new Scalable Intra Panel Interface, or SIPI™, achieves high data rate, low power use, and reduced interference with embedded system wireless services to meet the challenging demands for ultra-thin, high pixel density mobile displays. SIPI provides … [Read more...]

Microwave Therapy Equipment Safety Standard

 

IEC 60601-2-6:2012 specifies the minimum requirements considered to provide for a practical degree of safety in the operation of microwave therapy equipment. This particular standard amends and supplements IEC 60601-1 (third edition, 2005 and amendment 1, 2012). This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 60601-2-6, published in 1984. This edition … [Read more...]
