Over the next decade and a half, Ashkin and others experimented with various optical systems that could trap microscale objects, as well as atoms and molecules. In 1986, Ashkin and colleagues developed a single-beam optical trap [2]—a breakthrough that ...
By bringing together chemical engineers, electrical engineers, materials scientists and the Michigan Tech Microfabrication Shared User Facility, they were able to push the boundaries of all their fields. "Microdevice design has tended toward increasing ...
In the realm of MEMS sensors, Chirp Microsystems seems to have carved itself a particular niche of ultrasonic sensing. Founded by researchers that hail from the University of California Davis's MEMS Laboratory, this company was acquired by TDK early in 2018.
“We have a long way to go to routinely print active electronics reliably, but our 3D-printed semiconductors are now starting to show that they could potentially rival the efficiency of semiconducting devices fabricated in microfabrication facilities ...
Many methods are used to develop 3D printing materials, and the sources for new 3D printing materials are seemingly endless. In a study entitled “Additive Manufacturing of 3D Glass-Ceramics down ...
