Nanopositioning specialist PI (Physik Instrumente) has introduced the new PIglide HS planar XY air bearing stage
A new optics clip from Siskyou secures high flatness (e.g., optics with a flatness of lambda/10 or better) components in optical mounts without significantly degrading their wavefront performance
As microscopes become ever more powerful, a growing band of businesses are racing to make the latest technologies more accessible and more affordable, reports Rebecca Pool
Illustration of a three-dimensional crystal with various types of confining centres. (a) Crystal with four confining centres, each trapping waves (yellow) in all three dimensions simultaneously. (b) Crystal with a linear confining centre where waves can propagate in one dimension, analogous to an optical fibre. (c) Crystal with a planar confining centre where waves can propagate in two dimensions, analogous to a 2D electron gas. (Image: Vos et al.)
