Taking Semiconductor Manufacturing to the Extreme
Oct 1, 2009 — As consumer and enterprise demand for faster computers increases, so will the demand for faster computer chips. The speed of computer chips is directly related to the number of transistors that can fit on a chip. Transistors work like switches that enable and stop the flow of electricity, which corresponds directly to the binary code of ones and zeroes that underlies all computer functions. The more transistors, the more zeroes and ones are available to make more elaborate codes. In...

UK Relocation
Oct 1, 2009 — Agar Scientific of Stansted, UK, has moved to M11 Business Link, a custom-designed business park on the outskirts of Stansted. The company, which supplies microscopy accessories and consumables, chose the location because of its access to...
1st Atomic-scale QD Map Made
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. 29, 2009 – The first atomic-scale maps of quantum dots was created by a team of physicists at the University of Michigan, who say it is a major step toward producing “designer dots” that can be tailored for specific applications.
Atom-moving Marks 20 Years
SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 28, 2009 -- Twenty years ago this week, IBM Fellow Don Eigler became the first person in history to move and control an individual atom, an ability that heralded the age of nanotechnology.
Light Links Graphene, Gallium
BRAUNSCHWEIG, Germany, Sept. 18, 2009 – Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) scientists succeeded in making graphene visible on gallium arsenide – an achievement previously only possible on silicon oxide – by using a light optical microscope.
Mobius Names Mortensen CEO
Sep 16, 2009 — Mobius Photonics of Santa Clara, Calif., a producer of short-pulsed fiber laser sources, has named interim CEO Robert L. Mortensen to the position permanently. In June, he replaced company founder Dr. Laura Smoliar, who left to pursue other...
RPMC to Sell Oxxius Lasers
Sep 9, 2009 — RPMC Lasers Inc. of O’Fallon, Mo., has announced that it is the new North America distributor for Oxxius Inc.’s line of continuous-wave, diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) lasers and laser diodes modules. The lasers are available at 473, 532 and 561 nm...

What's New with PCR
Sep 1, 2009 — Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the workhorse of biological analysis, is used in areas ranging from criminal investigations and disease diagnosis to biological research. For example, it is the test that determines whether a strand of hair found at...
Laser Limits Shattered
BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 31, 2009 -- A new type of nanoscale laser can concentrate light into an area one-hundredth the size of the smallest spot that can be produced by a conventional laser -- a space smaller than a single protein molecule. The breakthrough breaks new ground in the...
Molecule’s ’Anatomy’ Imaged
ZURICH, Switzerland, Aug. 31, 2009 -- The chemical structure inside a molecule has been imaged with unprecedented resolution through the use of noncontact atomic force microscopy. Imaging individual atoms within a molecule has been a long-standing goal of surface microscopy. The results...
Plasma Probes Pulp Painlessly
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 31, 2009 – To reduce the process involved in routine root canal procedures, researchers developed a cold-plasma jet that may prevent deposits of bacteria from being left behind once the diseased pulp tissue is removed, while also relieving pain.
Imaging Reveals Hidden Art
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20, 2009 – The use of a new x-ray imaging technique to reveal, for the first time in a century, unprecedented details of a painting hidden beneath another painting by famed American illustrator N.C. Wyeth was reported to the American Chemical Society.
'Spaser' Nanolaser Realized
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., Aug. 17, 2009 – By harnessing clouds of electrons called surface plasmons instead of photons, engineers at Purdue University overcame a barrier preventing lasers from being integrated into electronic circuits. Their nanolaser, the "spaser," is the first of its kind...
