White Paper: Panasonic’s infrared array sensor explained
Recently, the progress of uncooled infrared (IR) sensors has been remarkable due to microelectronic systems (MEMS)-based pixel structure, in which free standing thermal isolation structures are adopted with thin film IR absorbers. Many applications are being developed, such as thermography, human detection, night vision and so on. Quantification of this energy allows users to determine …
TT Electronics launches SiC power mosfet
TT Electronics has launched an SiC power mosfet for high temperature, power efficiency applications with a maximum junction temperature of +225°C. As a result of this operating potential, the package has a higher ambient temperature capability and can therefore be used in applications, including distribution control systems with greater environmental challenges, such as those in close …
Ekinops transponder/muxponder line doubles network capacity
Ekinops is introducing a flexible rate transponder/muxponder line which allows network operators to double their transport capacity. Using an advanced digital signal processor (DSP) combined with Ekinops’ enhanced T-Chip (transport-on-a-chip) technology to support both DP-QPSK and 16QAM modulation formats on a single line card, Ekinops is able to deliver a low-cost, programmable 400G solution. This …
Zeolites could make LEDs cheaper and more efficient
Researchers from KU Leuven (Belgium), the University of Strasbourg, and CNRS have discovered a new phosphor that could make next-generation fluorescent and LED lighting even cheaper and more efficient. The team used highly luminescent clusters of silver atoms and the porous framework of minerals known as zeolites. Silver clusters consist of just a few silver …
