The Office of Naval Research has awarded NanoMech, LLC a contract for approximately $770,000 to complete development of a new, nanostructured lubricant additive called NanoGlide®. The Navy aims to increase durability and improve energy efficiency of naval components and systems through use of this advanced technology.
University of Toronto quantum optics researchers Sajeev John and Xun Ma have discovered new behaviours of light within photonic crystals that could lead to faster optical information processing and compact computers that...
Vistec Electron Beam GmbH is pleased to announce that it has stepped into a joined electron-beam lithography project with the renowned Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology (MIET). MIET, one of the most advanced Univ...
A team led by Yale University researchers has used nanosensors to measure cancer biomarkers in whole blood for the first time. Their findings, which appear December 13 in the advanced online publication of Nature Nanotechnology, could dramatically simplify the way physicians test for biomarkers of cancer and other diseases.
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory have discovered the microscopic mechanism behind the phenomenon of superinsulation, the ability of certain materials to completely block the flow of electric current at low temperatures. The essence of the mechanism is what the authors termed "multi-stage energy relaxation."
Microchip manufacturers have long faced challenges miniaturizing transistors, the key active components in nearly every modern electronic device, which are used to amplify or switch electronic signals.
Now, researche...
Stanford engineers have built what they believe is a chip with the most advanced computing and storage elements made of carbon nanotubes to date by devising a way to root out the stubborn complication of nanotubes that cause short circuits.
Pharmaceutical science researchers at Monash University in Australia, are using the FT4 universal powder tester from Freeman Technology to investigate novel techniques for improving the flow properties of excipients for inhaled product formulation. The team, led by Dr David Morton, has recently published work describing the use of optimised dry coating techniques to enhance the flow of fine lactose particles.
A Cornell researcher has created an extremely efficient transistor made from a material that may soon replace silicon as king of semiconductors for power applications.
University of Rochester optics professor Chunlei Guo made headlines in the past couple of years when he changed the color of everyday metals by scouring their surfaces with precise, high-intensity laser bursts.
