I often wonder if there is something beyond our grasp and perhaps “other-worldly” about elemental Silicon (Si), which is the primary material for most ICs and discrete semiconductors work. Yes, there ...

Caltech engineers have developed a new camera design that replaces the lenses with an ultra-thin optical phased array (OPA). The OPA does computationally what lenses do using large pieces of glass: it ...

Researchers have shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical ...

[Jan Mrázek] is no stranger at all to home-grown improvements with his Elegoo Mars SLA 3D printer, and there is a lot going on in his experimental multi-LED upgrade which even involved casting his own ...
