Volumetric 3D printer Tomolite (CAL) Ghent University
The Tomolite is the first, and currently the only, volumetric 3D printer on the market. Volumetric 3D printing, also known as computed axial lithography (CAL), was invented by Taylor and collaborators at Berkeley, who published a paper on the technology in Science in 2019. In CAL, a fully three-dimensional object is built simultaneously using the same scientific approach as SLA and DLP (namely, the spatially controlled photocrosslinking of a liquid resin). However, through the combination of this approach with the principles of inverse computed tomography (CT), a three-dimensional dose ...
The DUBBLE Beam Lines at the ESRF: Extremely brilliant X-rays for revealing the structure and function of atoms, molecules and materials (DUBBLE) KU Leuven
Synchrotron X-rays are produced when charged particles circulate in a storage ring close to the speed of light and are much more intense compared to the X-rays used for example in hospitals. By studying the interaction of a synchrotron X-ray beam with matter, the matter structure is revealed down to the atomic and molecular scale. A synchrotron can be imagined as a giant microscope that can ook at the inside of non-living and living matter down to the atomic level without damaging it. This project finances research at DUBBLE, the Dutch-Flemish research stations attached to the European ...
