Photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are compact devices that combine multiple optical components on a single chip. They have a wide range of applications in communications, ranging, sensing, computing ...

(Nanowerk News) From houses to hearing aids, three-dimensional (3D) printing is revolutionising how we create complex structures at scale. Zooming down to the micro and nano levels, a process known as ...

Tiny metalenses split a laser into 120,000+ points, letting 3D nanoprinting cover wafer-size areas with 113 nm detail at 1,000x speed. (Nanowerk News) Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) ...

Researchers have created a new type of epoxy photoresist that greatly improves the speed and detail of two-photon laser writing. This new material can write at a speed of 100 mm/s and can create tiny ...

Researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and Stanford University demonstrated a two-photon lithography (TPL) platform for wafer-scale manufacturing. The TPL platform uses large ...

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London created biodegradable, flexible, and electrically conductive nanocomposite films made using potato starch instead of petroleum-based materials. The ...
