Light guided system delivers uniform nanoliter droplets on chip
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Feb 06, 2026 Precise control of very small liquid volumes is essential for many modern biochemical analyses, but reliably dispensing droplets on the nanoliter scale remains a technical challenge on microfluidic platforms. Researchers have now demonstrated a light controlled droplet dispensing strategy that generates highly uniform, tunable nanoliter droplets on a chip by combining optoelectrowetting with dynamically designed light patterns. In the reported system, projected light patterns interact with an opto ... read more |

US allows Nvidia to send advanced AI chips to China with restrictions
San Francisco, United States (AFP) Jan 14, 2026 The US Commerce Department on Tuesday opened the door for Nvidia to sell advanced artificial intelligence chips in China with restrictions, following through on a policy shift announced last month by President Donald Trump. The change would permit Nvidia to sell its powerful H200 chip to Chinese buyers if certain conditions are met - including proof of "sufficient" US supply - while sales of its most advanced processors would still be blocked. However, uncertainty has grown over how much deman ... read more
