    Ultra-thin cold plates: How 3D printing is driving innovation in detector technologies

    Cold plate prototypes manufactured by CSEM during a previous project in collaboration with JJ Cooling Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is playing an increasingly important role in manufacturing, including for scientific instruments. That is why the AIDAInnova project is looking into how the technology can be used to make ultra-thin cold plates for…
