The suns rays, collected through reflecting mirrors, are used to heat water which then produces steam to power turbines.
1. CSP systems need water for cleaning the mirrors and for the generation of steam to drive the turbines which the greenhouses can provide. 2. The Greenhouse evaporators make very efficient dust traps (as do plants that are growing outside)
since the mirrors stay cleaner and therefore operate more efficiently. 3. In solar thermal power plants,
Smart Contact Developers The idea of smart#contact lenses the kind that can superimpose information on the wearer s field of view has been around for a while.
But the first iteration of smart contact lenses is already on the market and industry execs are beginning to generate a wide array of possible applications.
Smart contacts Photo credits Fast Company Smart Contacts The idea of smart#contact lenses, the kind that can superimpose information on the wearer s field of view has been around for a while.
But contact lenses are also being developed that use embedded sensors and electronics to monitor disease and dispense drugs.
By adding tiny light-emitting elements to contact lenses it is becoming possible to map digital images directly onto the wearer s field of vision to create a heads-up display
The first iteration of smart contact lenses are already on the market. The Triggerfish, created by Sensimed,

Traditional tests, based on sputum-smear microscopy, can take up to three months to yield results, THE WHO said.

And even if people had missed somehow an exploding star that star's remnants would still be out there today giving out a faint glow that could be picked up by telescopes.
Once the Ajayan and Lou teams were able to grow such large MDS arrays the ORNL team imaged the atomic structures using aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy.
Our microscopy facility at ORNL allows us to see materials in a way they've never been seen before--down to the level of individual atoms.
The ORNL electron microscopy images make it possible to view these grain boundaries directly. The Rice researchers see many possible ways to combine the materials not only in two-dimensional layers but also as three-dimensional stacks.
The team used atomic-resolution electron microscopy to examine the grain boundaries of this material and saw lines of misaligned atoms.
The electron microscopy was performed by atomic imaging experts in the David Muller lab at Cornell University's School of Applied and Engineering Physics and the Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science.
Now researchers with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) through support from the Energy Biosciences Institute (EBI) have shed literally new light on cellulase catalysis. Using an ultrahigh-precision visible light microscopy
technique called PALM--for Photo-Activated Localization Microscopy--the researchers have found a way to improve the collective catalytic activity of enzyme cocktails that can boost the yields of sugars for making fuels.
Said Prof Sow â#oein our childhood most of us are likely to have the experience of bringing a magnifying glass outdoors on a sunny day
and their team members utilised an optical microscope-focused laser beam setup to â#drawâ##micropatterns directly onto large area Mos2 films as well as to thin the films.
They found that the focused laser beam could modify the optical properties of the nanowires causing them to emit greenish-blue fluorescence light.
The research team demonstrated that the micropatterns created at a low laser power are invisible under bright-field optical microscope
but become apparent under fluorescence microscope indicating the feasibility of hidden images. Further researchthe fast growing field of electronics and optoelectronics demands precise material deposition with application-specific optical electrical chemical and mechanical properties.
