Nanoscribe introduces Quantum X, a two-photon 3D printer for microoptics

Nanoscribe, a German manufacturer of two-photon additive manufacturing systems has introduced a new machine, the Quantum X. The latest system uses two-photon lithography for fabricating nano-sized refractive and diffractive micro-optics which can be as small as 200 microns. Breaking the law According to Dr. Michael Thiel, co-founder and CSO of Nanoscribe, “Beer’s law imposes strong limitations […]

Essential step forward taken in pre-clinical testing of 3D bioprinted tissue

3D bioprinting is gradually proving its efficacy to create functional, replacement tissues for the body. At present though it has only be proven in small animal models. If the technology is ever to reach clinical trials in human patients it will first need to be scaled up. In Japan a collaboration between Keio University, Saga […]
