Three-dimensional printers are popping up everywhere these days. Some are small enough to fit in a briefcase and others are large enough to build print houses, but scientists at the Vienna University ...

This press release is available in German. At the Photonics West, the leading international fair for photonics taking place in San Francisco (USA) this week, Nanoscribe GmbH, a spin-off of Karlsruhe ...

Micrometre-scale sensors embedded in chips enable ultrafast, real-time monitoring of processor temperatures to improve thermal management in advanced electronics.

Electrical engineers at Duke University in the US have developed a new printing technique to create fully functional, recyclable electronics. Interestingly, the technique could enable printing of ...

This is a robust one pan balance with an iron and marble base, and a tag on front that reads “The / Micrometer / Balance / Scale Co. / Troy, N.Y. / Patented Nov. 22 – 1892 / Mar. 22 – 1898 / Jul. 21 – ...

Scientists have developed the world’s fastest 3D printer of micro- and nanostructures. With this printer, smallest three-dimensional objects, often smaller than the diameter of a human hair, can be ...
