In a step toward more efficient, smaller and higher-definition display screens, a researcher has developed a new type of color filter made of nano-thin sheets of metal with precisely spaced gratings.

Available in steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, the PEM line of self-clinching fasteners provide permanent threads in metal sheets as thin as 0.51 mm and are too fragile for tapping. The fasteners ...

The PEM self-clinching, concealed-head studs and standoffs can be permanently installed in steel or aluminum sheets as thin as 1.6 mm, and provide a complete seal from any potentially infiltrating ...

The majority of metal traces used to produce electrical connections in semiconductor devices begin life as blanket metal films that are later patterned and etched to create conductive connections ...

If you’re looking for a difficult challenge in life, try building a perpetual motion machine. But if you want an impossible challenge, try assembling one of these intricate laser-cut metal puzzles ...

The global ultra-thin stainless steel sheets market was valued at approximately USD 10.5 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 15.8 billion by 2034, growing at a Compound Annual Growth Rate ...

Aluminium drinks cans make a great source of thin sheet metal which can be used for all manner of interesting projects, but it’s safe to say that retrieving a sheet of metal from a can is a hazardous ...

For the first time, researchers show the synthesis of ultra-thin graphitic materials at room temperature using organic fuels (which can be as simple as basic alcohols such as ethanol). For the first ...

PEM self-locking fasteners with a nylon insert provide a reusable, nonmetallic prevailing torque thread lock that prevents threaded mating hardware from loosening due to vibration or other application ...
