Scientists for the first time have witnessed pieces of metal crack, then fuse back together without any human intervention, overturning fundamental scientific theories in the process. If the…

In a world first, a 'biological camera' bypasses the constraints of current DNA storage methods, harnessing living cells and their inherent biological mechanisms to encode and store data.…

A Rutgers-led team of scientists studying virus-host interactions of a globally abundant, armor-plated marine algae, Emiliania huxleyi, has found that the circular, chalk plates the algae…

Optical system and end-to-end learning of the PSF. (A) Training scheme: 2 differently colored emitters at random…

Take apart your laptop screen, and at its heart you'll find a plate patterned with pixels of red, green, and blue LEDs, arranged end to end like a meticulous Lite Brite display. When…

Researchers have developed a way to use laser light to pull a macroscopic object. Although microscopic optical tractor beams have been demonstrated before, this is one of the first times…

The researchers’ microrobots use “physical intelligence” to exert control over nearby objects. By spinning and…

Autonomous optimal navigation of microswimmers is in fact possible, as researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS) showed. In contrast to the…

If you are used to getting regular health checkups, you might be familiar with endoscopes. The endoscope is an imaging device consisting of a camera and a light guide attached to a long…

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron beam induced current (EBIC) image of a cross-section of the CZTSe…
