A research team at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, Wash., has deployed AI agents with the potential to accelerate the recovery of critical minerals from real-world industrial waste in days instead of the months or years required for manual experimentation.
Tescan, Czech Republic, unifies non-destructive Micro-CT, ultrafast laser processing, and high-precision FIB-SEM into a single, integrated workflow to accelerate root-cause determination in advanced semiconductor packaging while minimizing preparation-induced artifacts.
JEOL Ltd., Japan, has launched global sales for LazEdge, a SEM system that integrates proprietary Hamamatsu Photonics laser technology directly into the specimen chamber for high-speed, high-quality sample processing.
A new facility at Arizona State University’s Tempe campus will give researchers and corporate partners access to a wide range of advanced materials and manufacturing tools, supporting work with cutting-edge technologies. The Biodesign Institute marked the opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and facility tours earlier this month. Managed by the Biodesign Center for Sustainable Macromolecular Materials […]
Toni Taylor, a Los Alamos National Laboratory fellow and physicist, recalls that early terahertz research was hindered by the lack of modulators—devices that control light’s amplitude, phase or frequency—making it difficult for this promising band to reliably carry information for communications and medical applications. Situated between microwaves and infrared light, the terahertz range is too […]
