In the last century, the improvement of mechanical properties of structural metals was mainly achieved through the creation of increasingly complex chemical compositions. The complexity of this ingredient increases costs, creates supply fragility, and makes recycling more complex.As a relatively new metal processing technology, metal 3D printing provides the possibility to re-examine and simplify ...

A group of researchers and companies are using the iLAuNCH Trailblazer program to develop and identify new optical manufacturing processes and materials for space flight applications, and demonstrating them in space cameras.The University of South Australia, together with SMR Australia and VPG Innovation, will utilize an emerging optical manufacturing technology called freeform optics, which is no...

Plasmology plays a crucial role in advancing nanophotonics, as plasma structures exhibit a wide range of physical properties that benefit from local and enhanced light matter interactions. These characteristics are utilized in many applications, such as surface enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy, sensors, and nanolasers.In addition to these applications, the ultrafast optical response of plasm...
