A German 3D printing company applies for bankruptcy

On March 28th, Marvel Fusion, a laser fusion company from Munich, Germany, announced the completion of a B+round financing of 50 million euros, bringing the total amount of this round of financing to 113 million euros. It is reported that the company's cumulative financing has reached 385 million euros, making it the largest fusion company in Europe in terms of financing scale. This capital incr...

Recently, according to the journal Nature Nanotechnology, a team from the California Institute of Technology reported that they have constructed a metasurface covered with micro adjustable antennas that can reflect incident light beams: one beam of light enters and multiple beams of light exit, each with a different frequency and propagating in a different direction. This is a new method for proce...

       近日，从江苏通用半导体有限公司传来消息，由该公司自主研发的国内首套的8英寸碳化硅晶锭激光全自动剥离设备正式交付碳化硅衬底生产领域头部企业广州南砂晶圆半导体技术有限公司，并投入生产。 图：8英寸SiC晶锭激光全自动剥离设备       该设备可实现6英寸和8英寸碳化硅晶锭的全自动分片，包含晶锭上料、晶锭研磨、激光切割、晶片分离和晶片收集，一举填补了国内碳化硅晶锭激光剥离设备领域研发、制造的市场空白，突破了国外的技术封锁，将极大地提升我国碳化硅芯片产业的自主化、产业化水平。       该设备年可剥离碳化硅衬底20000片，实现良率95％以上，与传统的线切割工艺相比，大幅降低了产品损耗，而设备售价仅仅是国外同类产品的1／3。       近年来，碳化硅功率器件在大功率半导体市场中所占的份额不断提高，并被广泛应用于新能源汽车、城市轨道交通、风力发电、高速移动、物联网等一系列领域...

A new European research project is exploring whether the same fibre-optic cables that carry our internet could also serve as real-time sensors for hidden damage in infrastructure, including bridges, railways, tunnels and energy pipelines. The €5.1 million ECSTATIC project, coordinated by Aston University in the UK, is trialling this breakthrough approach in a major UK city, using a heavily-used...

Recently, the State Key Laboratory of Intense Field Laser Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics has made new progress in generating intense field terahertz waves based on Yb laser pumped organic crystals. The relevant research results were published in Applied Physics Letters under the title "Efficient strong field THz generation from DSTMS crys...
