Close up of a water drop on a rose petal. Rose petals exhibit a property called superhydrophobicity, which is of interest to material scientists. Now, researchers at Iowa State University have managed ...

One of the most well-known and intricately detailed types of 3D-printing, “vat photopolymerization,” uses light to form structures from photo-sensitive resin. A new study has found a way to leverage ...

The researchers developed a light-based means of printing nano-sized metal structures that is 480 times faster and 35 times cheaper than the current conventional method. Catherine Barzler, Senior ...

Everyone wants to 3D print with metals, but it is a difficult task. You need high temperatures and metals with high thermal conductivity make the problem even worse. Researchers at Caltech have a way ...

Caltech scientists have developed a method to create metallic objects of a precisely specified shape and composition, giving them unprecedented control of the metallic mixtures, or alloys, they create ...

Scientists have developed a universal method for producing a wide variety of designed metallic and semiconductor 3D nanostructures -- the potential base materials for next-generation semiconductor ...

As semiconductor devices scale for AI computing, advanced packaging and high density interconnects, manufacturers face growing challenges in measuring ultra ...
