Micrometre-sized particles are key elements of several technologies ranging from drug-delivery vehicles to microelectronics, which makes optimizing the fabrication of these particles big business. One ...

Stanford's latest breakthrough in 3D printing technology enables the production of one million dust-sized particles per day. While 3D printing has gained widespread adoption on a macroscale level, ...

Researchers at Utrecht University have quantitatively mapped the three-dimensional structure of photonic supraparticles for ...

Purdue University researchers have developed a patent-pending method to add particles to filament and disperse them evenly through a traditional fused deposition modeling, or FDM, 3D printer, which ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Each year, millions of people miss crucial vaccine booster shots, undermining the effectiveness of immunization programs worldwide. The challenge stems from a fundamental ...

Scientists have created “acoustic holograms” that can assemble matter into 3D objects, using just sound. The technique works with various types of particles and even living cells, allowing for a new ...

Forget your regular ol’ 3D printer. Why not try using sound waves to form a 3D object? That’s exactly what researchers in Germany set out to do, making use of “acoustic holograms” to form distinct 3D ...

In the previous episode, we looked at how Bhout turned one founder’s dream into a business. This time, we turn to a lower-profile but technically rigorous ...
