Researchers report in ACS Energy Letters that repositioning the electrode in a “blue energy” harvesting device — from the center of a see-sawing liquid-filled tube to the end where the water crashes with the most force — dramatically increased the amount of wave energy that could be harvested.
To better understand COVID-19’s spread during the pandemic, public health officials expanded wastewater surveillance. These efforts track SARS-CoV-2 levels and health risks among most people, but they miss people who live without shelter, a population particularly vulnerable to severe infection.
Empowering flexible fibers with light-emitting capabilities has the potential to revolutionize the current design philosophy of smart wearable interactive devices.
Cavity-enhanced single quantum dots (QDs) are the main approach towards ultra-high-performance solid-state quantum light sources for scalable photonic quantum technologies. Nevertheless, harnessing the Purcell effect requires precise spectral and spatial alignment of the QDs’ emission with the cavity mode, which is challenging for most cavities.
New study shows that the default apps collect data even when supposedly disabled, and this is hard to switch off
Endowed with the superior computing efficiency, optical neural networks (ONNs) have shown great potential in complex visual processing.
