Gently stretching and pulling a “blood vessel on a chip” encourages controlled sprouting of new vessels, for possible use in artificial tissues or organs.

The tunable device controls mid-infrared light for more precise thermal imaging, chemical sensing, or pollution monitoring.

The “TOSSIT” device, developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, can warn service members and first responders of dangerous vapors and aerosols.

The new aerated material could enable longer-lasting bandages, implants, and wearable sensors.

New research could help prevent the formation of tiny seeds of lithium metal within the electrolyte, enabling batteries that charge faster and last longer.

The new technology, which generates high-resolution, 3D images of breast tissue, requires no expertise to operate and could be used at home.

The FUTUR-IC research program integrates electronics and photonics in microchip systems.

The prototype array uses a small, lightweight, low-power, and low-cost aperture.
