The University of Manchester has received a portion of a £4.5 million grant based upon its microscopy research capability. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has awarded the grant to the SuperSTEM consortium comprising the Universities of Manchester, Oxford, Liverpool, Glasgow and headed by the University of Leeds.
A team led by Franklin R. Tay at the Georgia Health Sciences University (USA) and Ji-hua Chen at the Fourth Military Medical University (China) has now introduced a new approach to biomineralization in the journal Angewandte Chemie: the biomineralization of a collagen/silica hybrid material.
According to a latest research performed at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, the application of common metals in the tablet computers, smart phones and other electronic equipments will be probably replaced by graphene.
Scientists at the Nanotechnology Research Center of the Georgia Institute of Technology have for the first time directly compared two basic techniques that can be utilized for chemically doping two-dimensional graphene sheets for the production of interconnects and devices.
According to a new theory developed by Georgia Institute of Technology physicists, liquid and associated solid phases of two-dimensional electrons exist together in the presence of a magnetic field. The theory also explains the phase transition when the field changes.
Yang Liu and Larry Taylor, geologists at the University of Tennessee, have received a $380,000 fund from the National Science Foundation to investigate northern Siberia’s diamond deposits in partnership with scientists at the Russian Academy of Sciences.
The US Department of Defense issues $4.5 million fund over a four-year period to the scientists at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science for reinforcing carbon nanotube sheets and yarns for satellite technology applications.
A research team led by David Awschalom at the University of California, Santa Barbara has revealed that crystal defects present in silicon carbide, a commonly utilized semiconductor material used for electronics applications, can be manipulated at the quantum mechanical level, paving the way to use quantum physics for nanoscale sensing and ultrafast computing applications.
Krystyn Van Vliet, who was assigned the designation of the Paul M. Cook Career Development Associate Professor of Material Science and Engineering and Biological Engineering, has come from a background where she had only a modest level of exposure to technology or science.
Phaedon Avouris, who serves as Manager at the Nanometer Scale Science and Technology division of the T.J. Watson Research Center of IBM, will deliver a presentation titled ‘Graphene-based Electronics and Optoelectronics’ at the AVS 58th International Symposium & Exhibition in Nashville, Tennessee.
