Empa researcher Karl-Heinz Ernst is neither a mathematician nor a tiler. As a chemist, he researches the crystallization of molecules on metal surfaces. He never expected to deal with the einstein ...

Large metal surfaces coated with precisely formed nanostructures have so far remained in the realm of fantasy. The obstacle ...

Diverging and converging patterns forming on the surface of solidifying liquid metals resemble plotlines in a complex historical novel, in a new international study. The cyclic patterns observed ...

In this work we show that at typical light intensity the surface of Si photonic waveguides exhibits a metal-like behaviour. In fact, below the high intensity threshold where non-linear bulk ...

LinPerf™, short for Linear Perforation, is a new feature of the LASERDYNE S94P software. It provides an easy way to create programs that produce linear patterns of laser processed features on flat ...
