Multi-level electron beam irradiation enabled bifunctional gradient grafting on silicon microspheres and rapid curing of silicone rubber coatings, allowing linear control of hydrophilicity and ...

Plastics like Teflon are famously durable—and infamously difficult to recycle. But a breakthrough from researchers at the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) may offer a ...

Isle of Man-based Manx Precision Optics (MPO), a leading manufacturer of precision optical components, has announced the commissioning of a new, state-of-the-art electron beam coating chamber. This ...

Over the past few years we’ve seen several impressive projects where people try to manufacture integrated circuits using hobbyist tools. One of the most complex parts of this process is lithography: ...

The Temescal UEFC-5700 is designed for compound semiconductor production environments that use lift-off electron beam evaporation processes. The UEFC-5700 features a unique conical shaped vacuum ...

Coatings are required to remove or diminish the electrical charges that promptly accumulate in a nonconducting material when examined by a high-energy electron beam. Material samples investigated at ...

On the other hand, Gallium focused ion beam (FIB) milling can only reasonably produce cross-sections of samples that are 20 ...

An international research group has developed a new surface coating technology that is capable of significantly increasing electron emission in materials. Their breakthrough is expected to improve the ...

Electron lithography enables sub-100-nanometer patterning of a fully water-based hydrogel resist.
