Cool idea: images of the bolometer on a silicon chip. (Courtesy: Jean-Philippe Girard/Aalto University) A new type of bolometer that covers a broad range of microwave frequencies has been created by ...

(Nanowerk News) Bolometers are devices that measure the power of incident electromagnetic radiation thru the heating of materials, which exhibit a temperature-electric resistance dependence. These ...

The nanoscale radiation detector is a hundred times faster than its predecessors, and can function without interruption. Researchers from Aalto University and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland ...

The world’s largest bolometer camera for submillimeter astronomy is now in service at the 12-meter Atacama Pathrinder Experiment (APEX) telescope, located on the 5,100-meter-high Chajnantor plateau in ...

I don’t know about you, but this thing doesn’t seem like a scintillating bolometer to me. At all. Eduardo Abancens—a University of Zaragoza’s physicist—says it’s a dark matter detector. One that looks ...

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...

ULIS, a Grenoble, France-based developer of thermal image sensors for commercial, defense and security applications, says it has achieved "unmatched performance" with its latest bolometer, a type of ...

Researchers have developed a better bolometer, a device for measuring electromagnetic radiation. The new technology is faster, simpler, and covers more wavelengths. Bolometers, devices that monitor ...

WASHINGTON, D.C., February 6, 2018 -- Graphene is a remarkable material: light, strong, transparent and electrically conductive. It can also convert heat to electricity. Researchers have recently ...
