Keeping an eye on the health of structures

Posted on by Haptic

Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) used synthetic-aperture radar data from four different satellites, combined with statistical methods, to determine the structural deformation patterns of the largest bridge in Iran. The importance of roads and bridges for humans both during ancient and contemporary times is clearly evident. The structural health and integrity of Read more about Keeping an eye on the health of structures[…]

Researchers develop a method for sensing the electric field generated in semiconductor devices during operation

Posted on by Haptic

The technique is demonstrated for a diamond device, with nitrogen–vacancy centers acting as local electric-field probes, subject to bias voltages up to 150 volt. Semiconductors lie at the heart of many of the electronic devices that govern our daily lives. The proper functioning of semiconductor devices relies on their internally generated electric fields. Being able Read more about Researchers develop a method for sensing the electric field generated in semiconductor devices during operation[…]
