Research in the unattainable territory that won the Nobel Prize The 2014 Nobel Physics Prize was presented to blue LED. The development of blue LED resulted in the three researchers, Professor Isamu Akasaki, Professor commercialization of much brighter and energy-saving Hiroshi Amano and Professor Shuji Nakamura for the white light, thus contributing to energy conservation invention of an efficient blue light-emitting diode (LED). in the world and an improvement of people's lives in Red LEDs and yellow-green LEDs were developed in the areas without sufficient electricity. In addition to their 1960s; however, practical implementation of blue LEDs use as light sources, blue LEDs are now being widely was so difficult that it was even said that "it would be applied in various fields such as information technology, impossible to realize blue LEDs by the end of the 20th transportation, medicine and agriculture. Additionally, century." Amid such a circumstance, Professor Akasaki, the technology to put gallium nitride into practical Professor Amano and Professor Nakamura worked on implementation developed by the three researchers is the high-quality single crystallization and the p-type expected to find various applications in the future, such doping of gallium nitride (GaN), both of which had been as an application in power devices that serve as electric given up by researchers around the world.

  • An Historical Survey on Light Technologies
    Received March 31, 2018, accepted May 1, 2018, date of publication May 8, 2018, date of current version June 5, 2018. Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/ACCESS.2018.2834432 An Historical Survey on Light Technologies MASSIMO GUARNIERI , (Member, IEEE) Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Padua, 35131 Padova, Italy e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Following the celebration of the International Year of Light and Light-based Technologies in 2015, this paper presents a survey of the exploitation of light throughout our history. Human beings started using light far into the Stone Age, in order to meet immediate needs, and widened its used when ancient civilizations developed. Other practical uses were conceived during the Middle Ages, some of which had a deep impact on social life. Nevertheless, it was after the Scientific Revolution and, to a wider extent, with the Industrial Revolution, that more devices were developed. The advancement of chemistry and electricity provided the ground and the tools for inventing a number of light-related devices, from photography to chemical and electrical lighting technologies. The deeper and broader scientific advancements of the 20th century, throughout wave and quanta paradigms and the research on the interactions with matter at the sub-atomic level, have provided the knowledge for a much broader exploitation of light in several different fields, leading to the present technological domains of optoelectronics and photoelectronics, including cinema, image processing, lasers, photovoltaic cells, and optical discs. The recent success of fiber optics, white LEDs, and holography, evidence how vastly and deeply the interaction between light and man is still growing.

    Cubed Circle Newsletter 227 – We're Late, Just Like Gawker Media (RIP) We are back with a very late newsletter this week due almost entirely to lab report related delays. However, there is still a lot to discuss in this week's issue, including all of the news with Sting's retirement, upcoming cards, the “conclusion” to the Gawker trial, which is really only the beginning – and much more in the Pro-Wres Digest with Ben Carass. Plus, the Mixed Bag returns with a look at what may very well have been the best match of the year up until this point, discussion of WWE aesthetics, ROH, and must see BASARA. Ben also looks at last week's edition of RAW, Roadblock, and Mid-South from '82 with the infamous airing of the first Kamala vignette on Mid-South TV through 2016 eyes! – Ryan Clingman, Cubed Circle Newsletter Editor The Pro-Wres Digest for March 13th – March 19th. Ben Carass. [EDITOR'S NOTE: This report was left unedited and was intended to have been posted on March 20th, as such, some of the information may be out of date, and further information may be available for some stories.] TMZ broke the story on 17/3 that Steve “Sting” Borden's wrestling career is officially over, with the typically classy headline, “Sting Retiring from Wrestling...Neck's Too Jacked Up,” - quality journalism. Sting had not wrestled since facing Seth Rollins for the WWE title at Night of Champions on September 20th 2015 in a match where he suffered a neck injury while taking a Powerbomb into the turnbuckle.
