Creators
Description
In Russia a cyclotron has been designed and is now operating to make holes in plastic membranes: the impact of the ions produce tiny holes whose diameter is less than half a micrometer. These membranes are used in the fabrication of blood filters that are needed to separate blood corpuscles from plasma for instance. (A.C.)
