Light-based microcapillary monitoring sparks innovation in manufacturing and biotechnology
Principles and applications of KERI technology, which uses light to determine microcapillary contacts with nanoscale resolution. Credit: Korea Institute of Electrical Technology Researchers have developed a breakthrough technique that uses light to visualize the tips of nanoscale glass microcapillaries, allowing precise and delicate contact with other objects. “Microcapillary” is a precision tool with a very small diameter (0.1mm to 0.000010mm…

Waterless manufacturing approach could help advance integration of 2D electronics
These materials are made from molybdenum disulfide, a two-dimensional semiconductor, grown on the surface of sapphire. The triangles align because a specialized process called epitaxy allows the material to grow in a pattern that follows the surface it’s grown on. Insulating layers, such as amorphous boron nitride, are added during the manufacturing process of these ultra-thin materials that will be…
