Scientists have created the world’s smallest wine glass, narrower than a human hair. Made out of actual glass, the model is a test run of a new 3D-printing process that could help make nanoscale glass ...
A startup called Vitriform3D has developed an innovative 3D printing process that makes use of the abundance of post-consumer ...
MIT engineers have used 3D printing to create reusable glass bricks that withstand as much pressure as concrete blocks. What if construction materials could be put together, taken apart, and reused as ...
The new organic-inorganic hybrid resin allows laser 3D printed structures to be converted into transparent silica glass at lower temperatures than conventional methods (650-700°C) and with ...
When seeing a story from MIT’s Lincoln Labs that promises 3D printing glass, our first reaction was that it might use some rare or novel chemicals, and certainly a super-high-tech printer. Perhaps it ...
Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls. What if construction ...
For decades, glass has been a reliable workhorse of optical systems, valued for its transparency and stability. But when it comes to manipulating light at the nanoscale, especially for ...
