While the results may not rival the artistry of glassblowers in Europe and Latin America, researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Cornell University have found beauty in a new fabrication technique called “nanoglassblowing” that creates nanoscale (billionth of a meter) fluidic devices used to isolate and study single molecules in solution—including individual DNA strands.
Sheila Kennedy, an expert in the integration of solar cell technology in architecture who is now at MIT, creates designs for flexible photovoltaic materials that may change the way buildings receive and distribute energy.
Commonly used industrial dyes hold the key to advancing the new science of 'spintronics', say researchers working on a new £2.5 million study.
Spintronics holds out the possibility of a range of future applications, s...
Due to the enormous progress in fabrication and characterization techniques, novel magnetic materials have been widely applied, for instance as magnetic sensors in cars (angle or position sensors). Magnetic sensors are m...
Using carbon nanotubes, MIT chemical engineers have built the most sensitive electronic detector yet for sensing deadly gases such as the nerve agent sarin.
IMEC, an independent European research center in the field of nanoelectronics, and AIXTRON, a metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition (MOCVD) equipment supplier, have demonstrated the growth of high-quality and uniform A...
Abu Dhabi-based alternative energy firm Masdar PV will be investing US$2 billion in thin-film photovoltaic solar technology, as part of its drive to become a world leader in renewable energy. Applied Materials will provi...
Scientists working at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., have concocted an innovative recipe for giant telescope mirrors on the Moon. To make a mirror that dwarfs anything on Earth, just take a little bit of carbon, throw in some epoxy, and add lots of lunar dust.
On June 3, engineers from Perpetuum and CAP-XX will describe how Perpetuum's PMG17 vibration energy-harvesting micro-generator, together with a CAP-XX supercapacitor, allow wireless sensor system manufacturers to design battery-free condition monitoring systems that collect and report data on machinery for improved asset management.
Whitehouse Scientific’s printable eBrochure describing the company’s range of calibration standards and services is now arranged in separately downloadable sections.
