The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has successfully developed a length measurement system that achieves a ...

Scientists have twisted DNA into programmable nanostructures that form themselves — and could reshape future materials for light, sound, and electronics.

With a light microscope, we can distinguish objects at the scale of the wavelengths of visible light just under a micrometer. Around 1870 Ernst Abbe, who laid the foundation of modern optics, ...

Micro/nanoplastics (MNPs), plastic particles and fibers with sizes ranging from nanometers (≥ 1 nm) to micrometers (≤ 5 mm) have become emerging environmental pollutants and are widely ...

Nanophotonic sensors offer precision, remote read-out, and immunity to electromagnetic interference but face adoption challenges due to complex, costly readout instrumentation, typically based on high ...
