I was pretty sure this was going to be another doomed sample. For one, none of those little mesas and bumps - all formed of semiconductor laser material - were supposed to be there. It was all very interesting-looking, but it meant that some kind of junk had gotten on

Sometimes our samples get visitors. In most cases, they’re simply little flecks of dust that have settled to the surface of our chips. Since most of the structures we’re making are so small, your average chunk of dust can be comparatively building-sized. They usually scare the willies out

It’s a serene sight - a nicely formed wall of laser material (semiconductor InGaAsP, to be exact) stands on a smooth glassy plain. I added the color - it’s not actually cold here. It’s inhospitable in a different sense, though: There isn’t any air. For the

Dramatic patterns of light and dark chase each other across the landscape. Jagged monoliths reach for the sky, while canyons, mesas, and mountains range on toward the horizon. The mountains are made of solid laser material, and the plains are made of solid glass. And it’s all microscopic, the
