Picosun Oy, the leading manufacturer of high quality Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) equipment for global industries, reports several new orders for its success product for High Volume Manufacturing, the PICOSUN™ P-300B batch ALD tool.
Harvard University researchers have explained a new method of applying ultra-thin coatings over a coarse surface based on the optical phenomena - thin-film interference. This work is considered to be a promising technology for future applications including next-generation spacecrafts with thin decorative logos, rocket ships, advanced solar cells, and flexible electronic devices. The work is published in Applied Physics Letters journal.
A new mechanism called “stable energetic embedding” of molecules and atoms within ice surfaces has been discovered by a group of scientists from the Loyola University and University of Chicago.
Researchers at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology have developed safe antibacterial fibres using bio-compatible plastics and lanosol, an antimicrobial compound found in red algae seaweeds. Silver ions are widely used in odor-free and antibacterial clothing, and safety of these materials has been widely debated.

Extrel introduces the MAX300-EGA, the latest member of its MAX300 family of quadrupole mass spectrometers. Designed for evolved gas analysis, the MAX300-EGA delivers precision, stability, speed and flexibility for the analysis of off-gas from a thermal analyzer (TGA) or other continuous flow system.
Droplets are tiny spherical drops of fluid that are incapable of moving on its own. However, researchers from Southern Denmark University and Institute of Chemical Technology, Czech Republic have succeeded in making alcohol droplets move in water. They believe that this invention may serve as a breakthrough in potential applications of drug delivery.

Researchers at the Beijing Key Laboratory of CryoBiomedical Engineering described a new 3D printing method using low melting metal alloy ink. The melting point of the alloy is slightly more than the room temperature. This liquid-phase printing technique is suitable for the manufacture of a conductive metal product in various dimensions. Unlike the traditional 3D printing, the liquid-phase printing technique is devoid of the air cooling process that results in oxidation of the metal.

Scientists working at Ångström Laboratory at the Uppsala University, Sweden have developed a new environment-friendly battery prototype using resources from pine resin and alfalfa (lucerne seed) coupled with a smart recycling approach. Their concept could very well become an alternate option to present-day lithium batteries that have its share of environmental issues.
