New design enables high-power, shorter wavelength laser for microfabrication at high beam quality. New laser enables high-power, short WL laser for microfabrication. Panasonic says it has succeeded in demonstrating what it calls “the world's highest brightness blue laser.” This has been achieved by using the wavelength beam combining ...
Massachusetts-based photonics firm Block MEMS has won a $5.5 million contract to further develop its laser-based technology for stand-off detection of narcotics and other hazardous chemicals. Block is the only contractor selected for “Phase III” of the effort, which is being funded by the US Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity ...

Corfin Industries LLC, which is backed by Behrman Capital, has acquired Orlando, Florida-based Micross, a provider of microelectronic components and services. No financial terms were ...
Advances in nanotechnology mean that there are ever more complex things we'd like to build at those sizes, but tools for moving their component parts are lacking. New research from the School of ...
A team of researchers from Bilkent University and Sabanci University SUNUM Nanotechnology Research Center has developed a way to control buckling in a nanoscale beam using electrostatic effects. In their paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters, the group describes the device they built and its possible uses. In engineering terms ...
