"Chemical rockets that we use today, even with the extra speed boost from flying by planets, or from swinging by the sun for ...

Achieving practical interstellar travel requires overcoming the immense challenge of reaching extraordinary velocities. To ...

He shares the results of his electron-beam lithography experiments in his latest video (embedded below). In e-beam lithography, or EBL, shapes are drawn onto a wafer using an electron beam in a ...

At the frontier between plasmas and accelerators, novel ultrashort X-ray sources are produced using electrons accelerated in laser and electron beam wakefields. Based on radiation from moving ...

E-beam lithography operates on principles similar to photolithography but provides significantly higher resolution. The process begins with coating a substrate with an electron-sensitive resist ...

Delft, The Netherlands / Hsinchu, Taiwan -- Ocotober 13, 2008 -- MAPPER Lithography and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) signed an agreement, according to which MAPPER will ship its ...

Scientists propose using relativistic electron beams to propel spacecraft, offering a new hope for interstellar travel within a human lifetime.

But some projects are designing ways to propel payloads to the nearest star system (Alpha Centauri) using beams of electrons. A new proposal uses an electron beam fired from a stable platform near ...

A new technical paper titled “Sensitivity and contrast of indium nitrate hydrate resist evaluated by low-energy electron beam ...

FLASH radiation therapy could one day cure complex tumors and cancers while limiting the toll of radiation on the body. France's Institut Curie hopes to install one of the special machines in its ...
