Nanotomography comes of age

Article Abstract:

An X-ray microscopy technique of broad potential for three-dimensional imaging in physical and life sciences is reported and the contributions of specific chemical elements to a series of two-dimensional images are manipulated by tuning high-energy X-rays. In essence, this technique is a nanometrescale version of medical computed tomographic (CT) imaging of humans.

Unexpected tricks of the light

Article Abstract:

Metamaterials are gaining attention on account of their fancied applications such as 'invisibility cloaks'. But researchers state that initial metamaterials applications, based on unexpected optical tricks, are likely to be mundane as in their use in antennas for telecommunication or in biological imaging.
