Hitachi's UK Electron Microscopy and Semiconductor Tools businesses have relocated to Hitachi High-Technologies' (HHT) UK headquarters in Maidenhead, Berkshire. This brings all of HHT's UK business activities...
RIKEN scientists have developed a method for trapping and manipulating antimatter that could be key to solving one of the universe's biggest mysteries. The technique will allow scientists to "test the most fundamental symmetry of nature," says Yasunori Yamazaki of RIKEN's Advanced Science Institute, Wako.
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced that it is the lead sponsor of the upcoming Uppsala Conference on Electron Capture and Transfer Dissociation. The conference, organized by Dr. Joshua J. Coon from the departments of chemistry and biomolecular chemistry at the University of Wisconsin, will be held in Madison, Wisconsin, from December 7-10, 2008.
At the International Workshop on Nitride Semiconductors (IWN) in Switzerland
on 6–10 October, Prof. Misaichi Takeuchi of the Ritsumeikan University,
Japan, presented in-situ curvature measurements gained with LayTec's
EpiCurve®R TT metrology system
They are extremely light, yet stronger than steel and more resilient than diamond. They are nearly unbeatable as heat and electricity conductors. In some cases, they even become superconductors with no electric resistance: carbon nanotubes are - at a diameter of a few millionths of a millimeter - truly a tiny wonder, and are awakening great hope in all branches of industry from metrology to optoelectronics.
A novel technique under development at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) uses a relatively inexpensive optical microscope to quickly and cheaply analyze nanoscale dimensions with nanoscale measurement sensitivity.
JPK Instruments hosted the 7th international symposium on "Scanning Probe Microscopy in Life Sciences" on October 8-9th in Berlin. Nearly 100 scientists from around the world attended the meeting to present their results and share scientific knowledge. The meeting is part of the NanoBioVIEWS(TM) series of international meetings initiated by JPK to further the scientific interchange of knowledge on applications and instrumentation that applies nanotechnology in the life sciences.
PANalytical is pleased to report that two Dutch high school students, Barbara Terlouw and Robin van der Bles, have completed a week-long expedition to Spitsbergen, Norway. The company sponsored this environmental program as part of its ongoing support of activities that stimulate interest in the sciences.
Researchers of the Max Born Institute for Nonlinear Optics and Short-Pulse Spectroscopy (MBI) have developed a novel optical fiber that enables transmission of ultrashort light pulses with an unprecedented low degree of distortions.
A group of researchers led by Adrian Bachtold of the CIN2 laboratory in Spain has developed an ultrasensitive mass sensor, which can measure tiny amounts of mass with atomic precision, and with an unprecedented resolution to date.
