Utilising MENTOR's light guide knowledge, Multitron has announced the ex-stock availability of four ranges of full-face, evenly-illuminated switch keycaps. The faces of the switch caps are precision-designed area light guides, providing homogeneous illumination with no hot-spots, despite using just two SMD LEDs. The majority are available ex-stock and at low MOQs. The keycaps incorporate a 3-part SMD switch design for flexible solutions.

Researchers have shown that defects in the molecular structure of perovskites – a material which could revolutionise the solar cell industry – can be “healed” by exposing it to light and just the right amount of humidity.

LEDs are widely perceived as the perfect solution for lighting applications because, in theory, they last forever. What’s less frequently spoken about is the inconvenient truth: the circuit protection measures specified can make or break the design.

Safety equipment supplier E2S Warning Signals has announced the E2x family which is suitablefor status indication or warning applications in Class I/II Div 2, Zone 2 and Zone 22 installations.

Pickering Interfaces has expanded its 40-785B PXI Microwave Multiplexers range with new 50GHz modules.These new modules are single or dual 6-channel multiplexers with relays mounted on the front panel.

Designer and manufacturer of x86 embedded controllers and network platforms for solution providers, WIN Enterprises, has announced the PL-81230, a 1U rackmount, high-performance networking system. The device provides the features of the new Intel Xeon E5-2600 V3/V4 processors coupled with the Intel C612 series chipset. The Xeon processor delivers high performance with up to 22 processing cores. The CPU can support 55MB of cache and a total of 80 ...

Electronic components distributor, Jameco, now offers an easy to assemble kit that is useful for beginners or someone looking to add a flashing signal to their scale model projects. The kit is available in red as a solder-free, breadboard-friendly version and a PCB/solder version. The flashing rate is adjustable with the two trimmer potentiometers and is also available in the following colours: orange, yellow, green and blue.

Manufacturers are looking for new opportunities to increase their revenues and margins. In this context, the IR LED market is perceived as a potential new ‘blue ocean’ with attractive opportunities for those players.

The GrowWise Research Center at Philips Lighting has produced arugula (or rocket salad) with seven times higher vitamin C content than the published USDA value of 15mg/100g. The vitamin C-rich arugula was grown in a trial in collaboration with the Dutch Wageningen University and Research, and Maastricht University, using a new growth recipe under Philips LED lighting in a vertical farming environment with no daylight.

Thecolourof the light emitted by an LED can be tuned by altering the size of their semiconductor crystals. LMU researchers have now found a clever and economical way of doing just that, which lends itself to industrial-scale production.Unlike our old friend the incandescent lightbulb, light-emitting diodes (or LEDs) produce light of a definedcolourwithin the spectral range from the infrared to the ultraviolet.
