Smartphone camera technology is growing in leaps and bounds in the past couple of years and continues to be a major point to differentiate their products. The commercial development of curved image sensors is one of the biggest advance in camera technology in decades, allowing for simpler, flatter lenses with …

In 1911, a Dutch scientist discovered a class of materials which, at temperatures near absolute zero, could conduct electricity with no resistance and therefore zero loss of power. These materials called Superconductors have unique properties including, Zero resistance to direct current;  Extremely high current carrying density; Extremely low resistance at …

The piezoelectric effect was discovered by brothers Pierre and Jacques Curie in 1880, and named after the Greek word piezein, that means to press or squeeze. They found that certain crystals were able to generate an electrical charge when mechanically loaded with tension or pressure. If exposed to an electric …
