Scientists have no problem making a menagerie of nanometer-sized objects -- wires, tubes, belts, and even tree-like structures. What they sometimes have been unable to do is explain precisely how those objects form in th...
Scientists from Bochum have managed to accurately determine the location of metal complexes within living cancer cells using Raman microscopy. The researchers have thus gained new insights into the mechanism of action of metal-containing drugs, to which they ascribe great potential capacities, e.g. in the treatment of cancer.
In a breakthrough that should help to solve one of the biggest problems holding back development of affordable fuel cells, a team of University of Massachusetts Amherst scientists has discovered a way to improve proton c...
Can graphene -- a newly discovered form of pure carbon that may one day replace the silicon in computers, televisions, mobile phones and other common electronic devices -- be made to bend, twist and roll?
Biobanks, ocean monitoring, wind energy, and micro- and nanotechnology are being given a powerful boost in terms of research equipment. Four national research facilities were recently granted allocations totalling NOK 210 million.
Micromeritics will exhibit a variety of materials characterization instruments at PTXi Powder & Bulk Solids, Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL, May 4 -6, 2010, booth 2302.
We are delighted to announce that Dr Christian Rüegg from the London Centre for Nanotechnology and Department of Physics and Astronomy at University College London is the 2010 recipient of the Nicholas Kurti Europea...
At present, graphene probably is the most investigated new material system worldwide. Due to its astonishing mechanical, chemical and electronic properties, it promises manifold future applications – for example in microelectronics.
Scientists and engineers have used uniform magnetic fields to drive iron-bearing nanoparticles to metal stents in injured blood vessels, where the particles deliver a drug payload that successfully prevents blockages in those vessels.
After responding to a call for proposals, the research group led by Juan Bisquert at Universitat Jaume I of Castelló has won the bid for a scientific and technological research project on new types of solar cells based on nanotechnologies. The project entitled “Células solares nanodiseñadas de bajo coste basadas en nanocristales semiconductores” (“Low cost nanodesigned solar cells based on semiconductor nanocrystals”) will be funded with a 25 000 € grant.
