OLED: What is behind it

Displays made of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are very attractive. One of their advantages is that they can be inexpensively manufactured using inkjet technology. Companies are aiming to make this process suitable for mass production — for example at AUO in Taiwan, one of the world's leadin

Infrared: More Than Your Eyes Can See

The electromagnetic spectrum, spanning energies and wavelengths from radio waves to gamma rays, encompasses all forms of light. Infrared radiation, located in the range just beyond visible light, is emitted by all matter and is very useful in gathering data about Earth and space. In this video segme

The Electromagnetic Spectrum

In this video from NOVA’s Sun Lab, examine how scientists use electromagnetic radiation to learn about the Sun. The process of nuclear fusion in the core of the Sun produces energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, or light. The wavelength of photons (particles that carry electromagnetic ene
