Adding a Schottky junction to certain crystals can turn them into piezoelectric or pyroelectric crystals, even if they were unaffected by deformation or heat before, according to the the University of ...

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a tabletop accelerator that produces nuclear fusion at room temperature, providing confirmation of an earlier experiment conducted at the ...

A startup company is developing a flat-panel source of x-rays that could help make the imaging technique portable. The company’s panels are made using techniques commonplace in the semiconductor ...

IN some simple demonstration experiments using liquid air we repeated many of the interesting observations reported by L. Bleekrode 1 and by Miss M. E. Maurice 2 on the demonstration of electric lines ...

At first, it sounds like the biggest science story of the century: scientists have invented a desktop fusion machine. If nuclear fusion can be made to happen at room temperatures and pressures in an ...

In 2014, LASER COMPONENTS expanded its infrared detector range to include pyroelectric devices. Our Pyro Group manufactures both current and voltage mode devices at our state of the art facility in ...

What if atomic crystals could send pulse power to light up a room? Back in 314 B.C., a student of Socrates described bits of sawdust that gravitated to a stone thrown into a camp fire. What was an ...

LASER COMPONENTS is a world leading manufacturer of pyroelectric detectors. From our research and production facility in Arizona we supply customers all over the world with these robust thermal ...
