 Newest nano-tool is a laser you can't see
The next generation of nanoscale devices and chips will have to be made using tools of similar dimensions. Colorado State researchers may have just made one: a coherent laser at a wavelength of 13 nm, far shorter than any visible light. Continue...
Clinical trials using small RNA could change gene therapies
Gene therapy usually means replacing a faulty gene with a normal one. However, new research suggests that RNA interference, in which a problem gene is simply shut off, could be the way to go. Continue...

Laser Confocal Microscope Revolutionizes Surface/Shape Analysis
The KEYENCE VK-9700 Laser Confocal Microscope provides SEM resolution in an optical microscope system. With 18,000x magnification and 0.001 microm measurement precision, the new VK-9700 offers high-accuracy, 3D imaging and superior color performance with operational simplicity. Users can perform a variety of non-contact 3D measurements including surface profile, roughness, 3D and comparative measurements. New technology combines real color with a high definition, ultra-depth examination system. Full details in a comprehensive, illustrated catalog. For more information, click here. |
 Dutch firm announces first rollable display
Polymer Vision is not the only player in the flexible display game, but the company is the first with a commercial product release. It's the Readius, an organic LED mobile phone device due out this summer. Continue...
 Blackest black has bright potential
National attention focused on Rensselaer
and Rice Univ. researchers recently for their creation of a low-density vertical carbon nanotube array whose reflectivity was lower than anything yet made. The best part is that is might be useful. Continue...
Large Hadron Collider gets final detector element
The 15th last and piece of the Compact Muon Solenoid, all 1,430 tons of it, was lowered into the CERN supercollider yesterday, completing an 8-year assembly. This summer, collisions begin. Continue...
 World's strongest microscope powers up for the first time
Higher-order spherical aberration correction has given scientists the ability to view this stunning scene in 3-D: gold atoms as they shift along a nanobridge connecting two gold crystals. Continue...

Metric version of LVDT sensor issued by Macro
 Macro Sensors' new HSE/HSER 750 Series of 19.0 mm dia DC-operated linear variable differential transformer-based linear sensors and gaging probes are hermetically sealed, making them impervious to dirt, water, steam, and other corrosive elements. Its 24V DC-LVDT is now metric and sealed to IEC standard IP-68. Continue...
Key High's LPTA inlet traps block dust, powders, resins
New steel/enamel large-scale particle traps from Key High Vacuum Products are intended for use in industrial environments and extend the service intervals of vacuum pumps by preventing contaminates from being ingested by the pump. The traps feature a right-angle mounting arrangement with ASA flanges. Continue... |
