A device from Purdue University researchers may light a new way for next-generation electronic devices, energy storage and smart homes. (

 

A new type of lens is lighting the way for expanded uses of large ions and building blocks for new materials. The lens may also address one of the fundamental bottlenecks for generating bright ion beams. A Purdue University analytical chemistry group has developed a new device to help generate intense beams of large ions, which can be used for the fabrication of energy storage devices, optical coatings, purification of proteins and metabolites from complex biological samples, and nanoclusters from reaction mixtures.

 

“We have developed a lens that merges and focuses up to 20 ion beams,” said Julia Laskin, the William F. and Patty J. Miller Professor of Analytical Chemistry in Purdue’s College of Science . “This opens the door for the creation […]
