A nanofabricated silicon template holds two independent multilayer Laue lenses with high precision for easy alignment to create a nano-focused X-ray beam. Scientists have developed a new type of lens ...

Increasing demands on the performance of optical systems require tighter mechanical and optical tolerances. Thus, it has become unfeasible – both technologically as well as financially – to manually ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Berkeley has figured out how to inexpensively assemble more than 8,000 tiny plastic lenses into a dome-shaped array, mimicking the compound eye ...
