SILICON PHOTONICS
In 2000, Sandia used a 416-nanometer cheesecloth-like crystal to bend infrared light with little loss. 26 years later, the approach still guides research into faster, cooler photonic chipsSandia researchers developed a tiny structure guiding infrared light with minimal loss. This artificial crystal, made from gallium arsenide...
Columbia Engineering built a pigment-free paint filled with microscopic air pores; it stayed 6°C below surrounding air during hot desert tests in ArizonaResearchers at Columbia University and Purdue University have unveiled an experimental paint-like coating that can cool surfaces to tempera...

In 2009, scientists began with a 3.8% perovskite solar cell. 17 years later, LONGi's silicon-perovskite tandem set a 35.5% world recordSolar cell efficiency has dramatically increased from 3.8% in 2009 to 35.5% today. This new crystalline silicon-perovskite tandem cell was ...
Beyond assembly: Why India may need to move from scale to finesse in manufacturingIndia’s manufacturing opportunity is shifting from scale and assembly to deeper capabilities, engineering and innovation.
In 1967, US satellites searching for nuclear tests detected mysterious flashes from space. Decades later, scientists uncovered secrets of gamma-ray bursts, which can release more energy in 10 seconds than Sun will emit over its entire 10-billion-year lifetimeGamma-ray bursts, first detected accidentally in 1967, have long puzzled astronomers. Recent observations of their afterglows are now chall...
