Caltech scientists are developing laser-driven lightsails that could push spacecraft beyond our solar system. Their research ...

Research shows that modifying the texture of metals in batteries can boost performance, offering insights for next-generation ...

A new paper has demonstrated that improving the texture of the soft metal used in battery anodes greatly improved performance. The team added a thin layer of silicon between lithium metal and the ...

A recent project conducted by in-house researchers at the UK’s national synchrotron facility on its Hard X-ray Nanoprobe beamline, looked at how microplastics waste may interact with zinc oxide ...

Unlocking their full potential, however, requires evolving manufacturing processes. Electron beam (eBeam) technology, a precision-driven solution, promises to transform compound semiconductor ...

Scientists found that asteroid Bennu contained a set of salty mineral deposits that formed in an exact sequence when a brine evaporated, leaving clues about the type of water that flowed billions of ...

Delft, The Netherlands / Hsinchu, Taiwan -- Ocotober 13, 2008 -- MAPPER Lithography and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) signed an agreement, according to which MAPPER will ship its ...

Wavelength-routed beam-steering OWC systems in supporting mobile or multiple users are considered as a promising candidate, but require several expensive tunable lasers. Here, we propose a low-cost ...

Enter relativistic electron beams made up of electrons ... with energy supplied by a laser beam transmitted from a distant source. In contrast, laser sails use the momentum of photons from the ...
