Wasp with microchip, SEM
Wasp with microchip. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a flying wasp (order Hymenoptera) holding a tiny semiconductor integrated circuit (microchip) in its mandibles. As manufacturing techniques improve, not only do the electronic components on chips shrink, but the chips themselves can be made smaller. Chips as small as 0.1 millimetres across are now in production. Magnification unknown

A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 53.8cm x 42cm (21.2" x 16.5")
Estimated Product Size is 59.4cm x 42cm (23.4" x 16.5")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with landscape (horizontal) orientation to match the source image.
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate relationship between nature and technology. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we witness a remarkable sight: a flying wasp from the order Hymenoptera delicately grasping a tiny semiconductor integrated circuit, also known as a microchip, in its mandibles. As manufacturing techniques continue to advance, not only are the electronic components on chips shrinking, but the chips themselves can now be made smaller than ever before. With dimensions as minuscule as 0.1 millimetres across, these chips are already being produced on a large scale. The magnification of this image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this fascinating glimpse into the world of miniaturisation and microelectronics. The juxtaposition of an insect from the wild with cutting-edge computer technology serves as a reminder that innovation can be found even in unexpected places. This photograph highlights both the beauty and complexity present in our natural surroundings while showcasing humanity's ability to harness nature's wonders for technological advancements. It is through such interdisciplinary connections that we continue to push boundaries and explore new frontiers in science and engineering.
