Scientists developed a two-photon-enhanced metasurface that cuts photon requirements for nanoscale displacement measurement ...

Precision alignment in semiconductor lithography demands nanometer-scale accuracy, as even minor misalignments between the mask and wafer can ...

An unexpected discovery in a Harvard lab has led to a breakthrough insight into choosing an unconventional material, silica, ...

The interaction of light with surface plasmons—collective oscillations of free electrons—in metallic nanostructures has resulted in demonstrations of enhanced optical transmission, collimation of ...

This edition explores how materials science, nanofabrication, and workforce development intersect to support a resilient U.S.

Harvard researchers have found that silica, long thought to lack the right properties for optical metasurfaces, can sometimes ...

Researchers at Harvard University, working with collaborators at the University of Lisbon, discovered that low-index silica ...

A microwave-sized factory is quietly running hundreds of kilometres above Earth, heating a tiny furnace to 1,000°C and turning weightlessness into an industrial asset. Instead of treating orbit as a ...

Another massive shift compared to most quantum computing technology is that light cage memory operates slightly above room temperature and does not require cryogenic cooling. This makes it not only ...

A lithography strategy that combines ultra-large exposure field and fine-resolution imaging with algorithmic early zone ...

Semiconductor Engineering tracked 12 rounds of $100 million or more in Q4 and 11 in Q3, a significant increase from earlier ...

Anyone who has ever had to get a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan knows that magnetic and highly conductive materials are a no-go in the tube-shaped scanners. However, for complex diagnoses and ...
