Laser Annealing Creates Nanoscale Lattices
The technique involves sweeping a laser across a polymer sample to produce the extremely localized thermal spikes needed to drive ultrafast self-assembly of nanoscale cylinders. A heat-sensitive elastic coating on top of the unassembled polymer film expands when it is swept by the laser, which pulls and aligns the nanocylinders.

WEBINAR
Optical Tools for Mapping and Fixing Complex Biological Systems

Wed, Jul 1, 2015 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT

FREE WEBINAR


Ed Boyden
Complex biological systems like the brain present a challenge: their molecular building blocks are organized with nanoscale precision, but support physiological processes and computations that occur over macroscopic length scales. Presenter Ed Boyden and the Synthetic Neurobiology Group are creating tools to enable the mapping and repair of such complex systems.
