D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more.
MIT scientists created a way to 3D print glass-like structures without extreme temperatures. The special mixture used provides good structural integrity and diverse design possibilities. Researchers ...
Scientists have created the world’s smallest wine glass, narrower than a human hair. Made out of actual glass, the model is a test run of a new 3D-printing process that could help make nanoscale glass ...
3D printed concrete may lead to a shift in architecture and construction. Because it can be used to produce new shapes and forms that current technologies struggle with, it may change the ...
Glass is increasingly being used in fiber optics, consumer electronics and microfluidics for “lab-on-a-chip” devices. Unfortunately, traditional glassmaking can be costly and slow, and 3D-printed ...
If you haven’t noticed, diode laser engraver/cutters have been getting more powerful lately. [Cranktown City] was playing with an Atomstack 20 watt laser and wondered if it would sinter sand into ...
Printing of micro- and nanometer-scaled quartz glass structures from pure silicon dioxide opens up many new applications in optics, photonics, and semiconductor technologies. So far, processes have ...
Researchers created nanoscale glass structures with near-perfect reflectance, overturning long-held assumptions about what low-index materials can do in photonics. (Nanowerk News) Glass has been a ...
Seyed Ghaffar receives funding from Brunel University London. [email protected] received funding from European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (MSCA-IF) Mehdi Chougan does ...
A micro-optics breakthrough enables in-body 3D printing of living tissue using laser-guided bio-inks through a fibre thinner ...
Obviously, losing an eye would be bad for your vision. But if you think about it, it is also a detriment to your appearance. You might not need a prosthetic eye, and you can certainly rock an eye ...
