Curiosity about a mistake that left tiny dots on a germanium wafer with evaporated metal films led to the discovery of beautiful spiral patterns etched on the surface of the semiconductor by a ...

Some enzymes can chew through synthetic polymers. Researchers would like to harness this ability to etch channels, trenches, and holes into biocompatible materials as a way to fabricate drug delivery ...

The groundbreaking discovery could open new doors for other researchers working with delicate materials such as cell membranes. (Nanowerk News) Imagine drawing on something as delicate as a living ...

UCLA doctoral student Yilin Wong noticed that some tiny dots had appeared on one of her samples, which had been accidentally left out overnight. The layered sample consisted of a germanium wafer ...

Yes, that's the famous mantra from the 1984 cult classic "The Karate Kid," but the phrase also describes what employees do at Industrial Engraving and GB Embossing in northeastern Wisconsin. But they ...

Researchers have developed an etching-flux technique that forces single-crystal 2D semiconductors to nucleate deterministically at pattern centres, enabling high-mobility transistors and self-aligned ...

I cut wood, engraved metal, and tried my hand at aluminum business cards with varying levels of success.
