Polarization for photonic processor Researchers from the University of Oxford and University of Exeter developed a photonic processor that uses multiple polarization channels, increasing information density. "We all know that the advantage of photonics over electronics is that light is faster and more functional over large bandwidths. So, our aim was to fully harness such advantages of phot... » read more

Microchip detects antibodies with drop of blood A microchip developed by researchers at Georgia Tech and Emory University can detect antibodies in the blood with just a drop a blood. Postdoctoral fellow Neda Rafat and Assistant Professor Aniruddh Sarkar created a chip that uses electrical conductivity to detect antibodies using silver in the wells of the chip. When the blood reacts with silver... » read more
