The process begins with a solution containing micron-scale copper particles suspended in water. A small amount of indium-gallium alloy, which remains in a liquid state at room temperature, is added to ...

Editor’s note: Innovation Thursday – a deep dive into a newly emerging technology or companies such as our Startup Spotlight – is a regular feature at WRAL TechWire. RALEIGH – Researchers have ...

Although there are several methods of 3D-printing metal objects, all of them involve the application of heat – which isn't conducive to producing certain heat-sensitive electronics, among other things ...

For a lot of kids, summertime beckons with temptations — to sleep in late, watch too much TV, swim, roam. But that’s just the first day. Boredom sets in soon after. To entertain restless kids, have a ...

“3D printing has revolutionized manufacturing, but we’re not aware of previous technologies that allowed you to print 3D metal objects at room temperature in a single step,” says Michael Dickey, ...

Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a new, electrically conductive metallic gel that can be used with commercial-grade 3D printers. As well as conducting electricity, the ...

Scientists have built a highly electrically conductive metallic gel that could be used to print three-dimensional (3D) solid objects at room temperature. Researchers have developed a metallic gel that ...

The 3D printing revolution is a pretty regimented one, when you think about it. You detail the design, feed it into the printer, then sit back and watch as it emits the material in strict horizontal ...

First author Alina Elter (right) and Wibke Johnen, the medical technician responsible for the design of 3D printed objects, discuss a new 3D printed prostate attached to a silicone bladder for use in ...

While scientists have had success in the past printing structures like “bionic ears,” a clear path to making functional internal organs and tissue hasn’t really emerged. However, researchers at the ...
