For a long time, scientists associated crystal structures with an ordered arrangement of atoms in a repeating lattice-like pattern, believing it to be the most stable configuration. However, by the ...
Caltech scientists have developed a method to create metallic objects of a precisely specified shape and composition, giving them unprecedented control of the metallic mixtures, or alloys, they create ...
Researchers have developed a light-based means of printing nano-sized metal structures that is 480 times faster and 35 times cheaper than the current conventional method. It is a scalable solution ...
Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: One of the most well-known and intricately detailed types of 3D-printing, “vat photopolymerization,” uses light to form structures from ...
Sandwiches of porous metal help with both thermal protection and improved load bearing in high-temperature environments.
