This study analyzes far-field optical mapping of nanostructures using CLSM and radially polarized light, achieving 74 nm resolution for LDOS, crucial for high-density optical storage.
This study investigates temperature distribution between heated AFM tips and materials, using PPA film to create programmable nano/microscale pyramid structures for scanning thermal microscopy applications.

The quantum revolution is shifting from theory to reality, as breakthroughs like Google’s “Quantum Echoes” show. Scaling from small demos to systems with thousands of qubits demands ultra-precise, uniform nanofabrication. This post examines the fabrication challenges and lithographic solutions enabling the leap from lab to large-scale production.

What a week! From September 15–18, we had the pleasure of joining the micro- and nanofabrication community at the 51st International Micro and Nano Engineering Conference (MNE 2025) in Southampton, UK.

Heidelberg Instruments proudly celebrates the 10th anniversary of the MLA 150 Maskless Aligner—a breakthrough that has redefined high-resolution lithography in cleanrooms around the world.

Heidelberg Instruments Korea celebrates 20 years of customer commitment and partnership! Built on trust, loyalty, and long-term relationships, Heidelberg Instruments Korea continues to play a vital role in bringing innovation to local customers.
