In its constant quest to innovate, Brewer Science is continually on the cutting edge of what is next. We are currently combining directed self-assembly (DSA) and lithography to achieve sub–10 nm nanostructures. DSA uses block copolymers to generate arrays of self-assembled shapes such as lines or cylinders; the spatial arrangements of the resulting features can…

The technology industry changes almost in front of our eyes. The raw materials we're using, however, haven't really changed much over the last couple of decades. Basically, our palette is…
Click Here to Read MoreIs smart manufacturing about to usher in a fourth Industrial Revolution? According to some experts, it’s already underway. While smart devices drive much of the conversation around connectedness, “smart processes” are at the forefront for industry leaders in the world of manufacturing. We’re on a journey to connect the far reaches of the manufacturing world…
