Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have demonstrated a new type of vacuum ...

The ‘Tapping Mode SQUID-on-Tip’ (TM-SOT) microscope enables multimodal imaging to be performed extremely close to the sample surface using tapping mode feedback. This allows for stability during ...

After decades of intense research, surprises in the realm of semiconductors—materials used in microchips to control ...

Future devices will continue to probe the frontier of the very small, and at scales where functionality depends on mere atoms, even the tiniest flaw matters. Researchers at Rice University have shown ...

A single flat metalens now handles both excitation and fluorescence collection for diamond quantum sensors, enabling ...

Engineers created a MEMS-tunable twisted bilayer photonic crystal chip that dynamically adjusts twist angle and spacing to ...

The second paper, appearing in the journal Nano Letters and led by graduate student Pooja Reddy, describes a clever method to ...

Shimadzu Scientific Instruments has introduced an on-line total organic carbon (TOC) analyzer designed to meet ultrapure ...

Crystal jellyfish have an eerie beauty: thanks to a natural protein, they emit a faint green glow. For decades, researchers ...

PCA and K-means clustering applied to Raman and PL imaging reveal structural defects in silicon wafers, enhancing understanding of optoelectronic performance.

Photoluminescence testing complements EL by using light-induced excitation rather than electrical current to detect material-level defects, contamination, and performance variations in solar wafers ...

How new equipment and methodologies are improving reliability, yield, and time-to-market for multi-die assemblies.
