Cool Aerobatics May Enable Sensors to Reach Earth's 'Unknown Layer', Current Challenge Lies in Integrating Functional Hardware

Click the blue text to follow us SUBSCRIBE to US Source Images: Alex Gerst/NASA; Benjamin Schafer, Jong-hyoung Kim, et al. The Earth’s atmosphere is vast, extending about 10,000 kilometers from the surface. Its immense scale has led scientists to divide it into five distinct layers. Among these, one specific layer has received little attention due … Read more

University of Southampton Microsystems & Nanoengineering: Superlenses Enable Precise Control of Nanoparticles

Problem Addressed: Traditional optical levitation systems face challenges such as large optical component sizes and low integration when achieving high-frequency rotational control of nanoparticles in a vacuum. Additionally, there is a lack of efficient means to control the translational and rotational motion patterns of nanoparticles, limiting their application in ultra-precision measurement and fundamental physics research. … Read more
