On the spot, intelligent, reliable – The first pro-active NIR contact measurement head NIRON II

Lamp failures are not predictable; they are a fact of life. Consequently tec5 not only chose a lamp with long life time of 10,000 hours, but also integrated an identical lamp more

• BASF research boosts its innovative strength

  BASF had sales of approximately €8.5 billion in 2012 from new products that have been on the market for less than five years. “Our research Verbund has increased its innovative strength to a new level of performance in 2012,” said Dr. Andreas Kreimeyer, member of the Board of Executive Directors of more

• Small particles with a bright future

  Phosphors form the basis of many applications in our daily life. Their further development is the goal of the project "LUMINET" which is funded by the EU in the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) to the tune of 3.6 million Euros over four years. For this purpose, a network of twelve research institutes a more

• High-performance, NW-OPTs open the way for optoelectronic device miniaturization

  Research team of Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), Ulsan, South Korea, developed high-performance organic phototransistors (OPTs) based on single-crystalline n-channel organic nanowires. Phototransistors are a kind of transistors in which the incident light intensity can mo more

• Measuring particle size using modern laser diffraction techniques
  

  Many different techniques have been devised for determining particle size distribution, but for a wide range of industries laser diffraction has become the preferred choice. Laser diffraction, alternatively referred to as Low Angle Laser Light Scattering (LALLS), can be used for the non-destructive analysis of wet or dry samples, with particles in the size range 0.02 to 2000 micron and has inherent advantages which make it preferable to other options for many different materials. more

• A complete multi-scale simulation of light absorption within a fluidized bed photoreactor using integrated particle, fluid and photon behaviour models

  Photocatalysis is a process that offers the ability to degrade a wide range of pollutants through a non-intensive process using renewable light sources. Despite this promise, in practice the take-up of photocatalysis has been slow, in part because little work has been done on the optimal design of p more
