Cool idea: images of the bolometer on a silicon chip. (Courtesy: Jean-Philippe Girard/Aalto University) A new type of bolometer that covers a broad range of microwave frequencies has been created by ...
Chip-level future: an artist’s impression of how microscopic bolometers (in the chip on the right) could sense very weak radiation emitted from qubits (in the chip on the left). (Courtesy: Aleksandr ...
(Nanowerk News) Bolometers are devices that measure the power of incident electromagnetic radiation thru the heating of materials, which exhibit a temperature-electric resistance dependence. These ...
1. ZDNet – Researchers working at the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) in Barcelona have built a super-sensitive photodetector by combining graphene with semiconducting quantum dots that ...
Devices such as digital cameras electronically measure levels of high-energy light, and that's good enough for most of us. Now, however, scientists have developed a mechanical alternative that works ...
The world’s largest bolometer camera for submillimeter astronomy is now in service at the 12-meter Atacama Pathrinder Experiment (APEX) telescope, located on the 5,100-meter-high Chajnantor plateau in ...
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...
I don’t know about you, but this thing doesn’t seem like a scintillating bolometer to me. At all. Eduardo Abancens—a University of Zaragoza’s physicist—says it’s a dark matter detector. One that looks ...
