Silicon photonic systems rely increasingly on micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) actuators to provide precise beam steering, wavelength tuning, and optical switching. These applications demand ...
Scan the skyline of New York City and it’s almost everywhere you look. Same thing with Chicago and Philadelphia and just about any big city where the buildings poke into the sky. Everyone knows ...
An acoustic “tractor beam” that can pull an object by firing sound waves at it has been created by physicists in the UK and US. The beam was made using a commercial ultrasound surgery system and ...
