A new method for studying composites allows for the detection of emerging defects in materials

Russian scientists have developed an innovative approach to studying the structure of composite materials that changes under external influence in real time. This methodology provides important data from miniature samples, which can now be tested in a scanning electron microscope chamber. The results obtained are used for reliable strength calculations, which will save costs in the production and testing of automotive and aerospace components.

100 million times faster: Russian scientists speed up nanotube-based detectors

In Russia, a super-fast integrated optical detector has been presented that can be adapted for various tasks — from telecommunications and thermal imagers to medical biosensors, security systems, and astronomical instruments. The device detects weak infrared signals in an integrated-optical chip 100 million times faster than its analogues and updates data more than one billion times per second, making it one of the fastest in its class.
