Complex Nanostructures Formed by Nanoparticles with a Layer of Hydrophilic Polymer Chains

Amphiphilic molecules, which have one water-friendly (hydrophilic) end and
one water-repellant (hydrophobic) end, spontaneously aggregate in aqueous solutions
to make superstructures like capsules or bilayers.

Potential On-Off Switch for Nanoelectronics

As electronic circuits shrink from finely etched lines in silicon wafers to
nearly elusive proportions, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
(Berkeley Lab) and Columbia University are studying how electrons flow through
a molecular junction-a nanometer scale circuit element that contacts gold atoms
with a single molecule.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?

In recent years, the IoT is rapidly being introduced into almost all sectors, but it has particular importance in the EV industry.
