DuPont, a materials science company, has signed a financial and strategic development agreement with Nanocomp Technologies, a commercial producer of high performance carbon nanotube (CNT)-based sheets, wires, tapes, and yarns.
A research team headed by Hongjie Dai from the Stanford University has synthesized a multi-walled carbon nanotube complex comprising cylindrical carbon sheets, which can be helpful in reducing the cost of catalytic converters, fuel cells, and other energy-related technologies by providing an economical replacement for high-cost platinum catalysts.
A research team from the Case Western Reserve University has discovered that triangle, cube and other higher-order-structured gold catalysts are capable of growing nanowires two times faster and longer than the process involving standard spherically-shaped catalysts.
Research and Markets has included a report titled ‘Titanium Dioxide Nanomaterials: Volume 1352. MRS Proceedings’ to its catalogue.
A new coating based on nanoparticles is developed by a research team from the UPNA-Public University of Navarre for construction applications.
From a starting point of ‘what is a particle?’, Malvern Panalytical’ new ‘A basic guide to particle characterization’ white paper takes the reader through descriptions of a range of particle properties and then goes on to introduce a variety of different particle characterization techniques.
A research team at Penn State has developed a two-dimensional (2D) bilayer material by integrating one-to-two-atom-thick graphene layer with a hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) layer having a thickness of few to several hundred atoms for fabricating wafer-scale transistors with improved performance.
A research team headed by Jim DeYoreo from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) of the US Department of Energy has for the first time directly observed the forces behind ‘oriented attachment,’ a key phenomenon driving crystal growth in several biomimetic and natural materials and in the fabrication of nanowires.
A research team from the University of Florida (UF) has fabricated a graphene solar cell that demonstrates a power conversion efficiency of 8.6%, a record value, when considering earlier attempts in the making of graphene solar cells that managed only 2.9% conversion efficiency.
A multi-institute research team has developed a novel nanostructured metamaterial that can transmit light more efficiently, taking one step closer to the realization of novel optical technologies.
