Attocube Offers 3D Mouse SpaceNavigator for Multi-Axis Nano Positioning Applications

In fundamental research, materials science and industries such as semiconductor processing, life-sciences or manufacturing technology, piezo drives are used for the most challenging positioning tasks. The nano precise alignment of these devices – often multi-axis configurations – is a very crucial factor. Despite the progressing automation, it is sometimes still necessary to control positioning components manually. This is e.g. the case for particularly sensitive or complex set-ups, such as used in laboratory operation or for testing purposes.

Drug-Releasing, Multi-Tasking Electronic Stent Could Help Minimize Risks

Every year, an estimated half-million Americans undergo surgery to have a stent prop open a coronary artery narrowed by plaque. But sometimes the mesh tubes get clogged. Scientists report in the journal ACS Nano a new kind of multi-tasking stent that could minimize the risks associated with the procedure. It can sense blood flow and temperature, store and transmit the information for analysis and can be absorbed by the body after it finishes its job.

New Report on Functional Materials for Future Electronics

The chemistry of the new electronics and electrics is key to its future, whether it is invisible, tightly rollable, biodegradable, edible, employing the memristor logic of the human brain or possessing any other previously- impossible capability in a manufactured device. De-risking that material development is vital yet the information on which to base that has been unavailable. No more.
