MEMS technology

Using electricity and water, a new kind of motor can slide microrobots into motion
“At very small scales, you get a heater instead of a motor,” said Jakub Kedzierski, staff in MIT Lincoln Laboratory’s Chemical, Microsystem, and Nanoscale Technologies Group. Today, no motor exists that is both highly efficient and powerful at microsizeScienceBlog: 2018-11-20

Tiny Optical Gyroscope Smaller Than a Grain of Rice
Traditional MEMS-based gyroscopes work by measuring the forces of two identical masses that are oscillating and moving in opposite directions. By contrast, the optical gyroscope that the Caltech team developed employs lasers rather than MEMS to achieve the ...Engineering: 2018-11-19

Nanotechnology

A major step toward non-viral ocular gene therapy using laser and nanotechnology
Gold nanoparticles, which act like &quot;nanolenses,&quot; concentrate the energy produced by the extremely short pulse of a femtosecond laser to create a nanoscale incision on the surface of the eye&#39;s ...Phys.org: 2018-11-19
