Expanded stent physically opens a blocked blood vessel, but interactions between the metal surface and vascular cells can either promote healing or lead to adverse effects. The research team led by Dr ...

Researchers in China developed a laser-assisted poly-Si finger contact fabrication method combining picosecond laser ...

Laser interference lithography is invented for nano-patterning liquid metal (LM). The resolution in LM patterns breaks the optical limit of laser beams. Pulsed-laser-induced compression enables ...

A Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) research team has developed a novel stent surface treatment technology using laser patterning. This technology promotes endothelial cell growth while ...

Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is a set of advanced methods for surface analysis. The recent advances in SPM of metals, polymers, insulating, and semiconductive materials are primarily due to the ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Crystalline materials with precisely engineered structures lie at the heart of virtually every advanced technology, from the silicon microchips powering our electronics to the ...

A project from TU Wien (Technical University of Vienna, Austria) has demonstrated how laser patterning can be used to create microvascular channels within microfluidic chips. The breakthrough, ...

Mike Mason, VP Technology at Powerlase, discusses advances and manufacturing benefits of Rapid Laser Patterning (RLP) in the production of Flat Panel Displays. Since appearing on the market in the ...
