Scientists in the United States have made an extremely precise measurements of unstable ruthenium ...

Whether in a smartphone or laptop, semiconductors form the basis of modern electronics and accompany us constantly in everyday life. The processes taking place inside these materials are the subject ...

Abstract: Nuclear science fundamentally explores the formation of protons and neutrons from elementary particles and the interactions between them. One successful model describing this is the nuclear ...

An associate professor in the Department of Physics, Lomsadze uses powerful laser-based tools to capture ultrafast events in quantum materials, work that could shape the future of technology.

Peter Bender, Assistant Professor, Department of Physics and Applied Physics, University of Massachusetts Lowell will give a talk on “Seeing the Invisible: High-Resolution γ-Ray Spectroscopy of Rare ...

Sum-frequency generation (SFG) is a powerful vibrational spectroscopy that can selectively probe molecular structures at surfaces and interfaces, but its spatial resolution has been limited to the ...

California-based Oclaro Inc. has agreed to acquire the local Spectra-Physics operation of Newport Corp. as part of an asset-exchange deal. Oclaro plans to consolidate some of Spectra-Physics' laser ...

Scientists have shown that it may be possible to transform materials simply by triggering internal quantum ripples rather ...

How it works: the top frequency comb is passed through a sample of interest and then into a beamsplitter. The bottom frequency comb operates at a slightly different pulse repetition frequency and is ...
