TFLN offers a much smaller footprint and improved modulation efficiency, making it highly attractive for short-reach optical communication and future integrated photonics.
What is polypropylene and why is it the second most popular commodity plastic in the world? Here we look at the science behind PP and its top applications.
Parylene coatings present unique challenges when it comes to rework and removal. They often outperform other conformal coatings. Parylene has better barrier properties, uniform coverage, and performance in thinner layers.
Polyamide vs nylon is a matter of classification scope, as nylons are a type of polyamide. Here we look at what makes them different.
Some materials, like metals, tend to expand when heated, while others, like water, show a more complex behavior, with expansion occurring at specific temperatures. th Learn about other thermal coating properties, like thermal conductivity and glass transition temperature.
MIT engineers developed a technique for making intricate structures with supports that can be dissolved and reused instead of thrown away.
An international team of scientists was first to demonstrate that halide perovskites can serve as a base for nonlinear on-chip optical components. As an example, they can be used to build ultrafast optical chips and transistors, and, potentially, other integrated optical systems.
