Powering up stretchy technology

Researchers have created stretchable energy-storage devices using a specialized printing technology, innovative materials and the centuries-old art of origami.

New X-ray camera achieves new heights of precision and accuracy

Scientists developed a new X-ray imager with much greater precision and accuracy than possible before. The new levels are less than one hundredth of an X-ray wavelength, even smaller than an Angstrom.

Tiny terahertz laser is the first to reach three key performance goals at once

Researchers have achieved a tiny high-power narrow-beam laser that operates in the terahertz frequencies. The new devices are the first terahertz laser devices to reach three key performance goals at once - high power, tight beam, and broad frequency tuning - in a design that can work outside a laboratory.
