3D Printed Metals Can Be Both Strong and Ductile
3D Printed Metals Can Be Both Strong and Ductile
A joint research team developed the technique to 3D-print metals — involving a widely used stainless steel — and achieved exceptional levels of both strength and ductility when compared to counterparts from more conventional processes.

Optical Probes Allow Ultrafast, High-Resolution Imaging of Dopamine Activity
Optical Probes Allow Ultrafast, High-Resolution Imaging of Dopamine Activity
Fluorescent sensors that optically record dopamine activity in the brains of behaving mice could help facilitate the discovery of therapeutics for depression and addiction. The technology precisely captures where and when dopamine activity occurs in the mouse brain within milliseconds and at the cellular level.

Creating Precision Optical Components with Inkjet Printing
Creating Precision Optical Components with Inkjet Printing
Researchers have developed an inkjet printing technique that can be used to print optical components, such as waveguides. The printing approach can also fabricate electronics and microfluidics. The researchers discovered that depositing the ink in two steps, rather than the traditional single step, enabled printing of lines with a specific height and with much smoother features than traditional techniques.

Researchers Devise Exciton Scaling Rule for Optoelectronics Design
Scientists have created a scale by which labs can determine the binding energy of excitons, and thus their bandgap structures, in perovskite quantum wells of any thickness. The findings were based on a study of excitons trapped in quantum wells made of halide perovskite.

Frequency-Stable Laser System for Space Could Be Used for Optical Satellite Navigation
Frequency-Stable Laser System for Space Could Be Used for Optical Satellite Navigation
Scientists report that an active optical frequency reference based on molecular iodine was successfully tested for the first time in space. Results of the JOKARUS experiment (German acronym for iodine comb resonator under weightlessness) could be a step toward laser interferometric distance measurements between satellites, and future global navigation satellite systems based on optical technologies.
