New techniques bring ink-jetted electronics and bendable substrates into more high-volume uses

Automation providers ABB and Bosch Rexroth have both devised robotic and motion-control equipment aimed at PV production tasks.

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University have recently launched a project to create a dynamic electronic surface that will let blind and visually impaired people “feel” mathematical graphics, diagrams, and other visuals displayed on computer screens, including pictures and maps.

Engineers at Purdue University have developed a method for growing individual carbon nanotubes vertically on top of a silicon wafer.

Also from Cornell researchers comes a broadband light amplifier on a silicon chip, considered a significant step towards photonic microchips, devices in which photons replace electrons as the means of communication.

Georgia Tech researchers have built a highly sensitive atomicforce-microscopy (AFM) device capable of imaging 100 times faster than conventional AFM equipment.
