Printing with a resolution of 100,000 dpi

Researchers at IBM, working in Zurich, Switzerland, proudly announced that they were able to develop printing technology with a stunning resolution of 100 thousand dots per inch (the current print is capable of a resolution of 1500 dots per inch). According to scientists, this will allow printing particles of about 60 nanometers in size. For comparison: the thickness of a human hair is about 80 thousand nanometers. Feel the difference?

The technology, details of which the Aybians prefer not to disclose yet, is useful primarily in medicine for the manufacture of microscopic biosensors. In addition, such high-precision printing is planned to be used for the production of special lenses designed for optical microchips, nanowires, and even, oddly enough, money. In the latter case, the technology will allow to increase the degree of security of paper notes.

However, before the commercial introduction of a unique printing technology will have to wait a few more years, they say at IBM.
