NEI Corporation, a leading developer and manufacturer of nanomaterials, announced that it has been awarded a prestigious NASA Research Announcement contract.
In the initial phase of the contract, the company will use it...
The Advanced Technology Institute at the University of Surrey has been awarded
a major research grant by the energy giant E.ON based in Germany as part of
their 'Application of Nanotechnology in the Energy Business'. The three year
project, led by Professor Ravi Silva, Director of the Advanced Technology Institute,
aims to utilise the nanotechnological expertise of the institute in the design,
fabrication and characterisation of the organic-inorganic hybrid solar cells.
Using tiny gold particles and infrared light, MIT
researchers have developed a drug-delivery system that allows multiple drugs
to be released in a controlled fashion.
Northwestern University team develops new method to reliably produce and sort out double-walled carbon nanotubes; discovery could lower the cost of this dynamic material.
In recent years, the possible applications for...
Researchers at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a method to
measure the toughness—the resistance to fracture—of the thin insulating
films that play a critical role in high-performance integrated circuits. The
new technique could help improve the reliability and manufacturability of ICs
and, better yet, it’s one that state-of-the-art microelectronics manufacturers
can use with equipment they already own.
FEI’s
new Magellan™ extreme high-resolution scanning electron microscope (XHR
SEM) allows scientists and engineers to quickly see 3D surface images at many
different angles and at resolutions below one nanometer.
Over the last 60 years, ever-smaller generations of transistors have driven
exponential growth in computing power. Could molecules, each turned into miniscule
computer components, trigger even greater growth in c...
A giant lightweight carbon nanotube with good strength and electrical properties
is desirable, all right. A micron-sized carbon tube is easier to exploit commercially
than any (so to speak) littler nanocousin. But is it still a nanotube?
Nanoscience researchers at Lund University in Sweden have shown that they can control the growth and crystal structure of nanowires down to the single atom level.
How this can be done is described in an article to ap...
IBM (NYSE:IBM) Researchers today announced that they demonstrated the operation of graphene field-effect transistors at GHz frequencies, and achieved the highest frequencies reported so far using this novel non-silicon e...
