An aerial for light
Austrian physicists report unusual light-metal interaction A team under Professor Franz Aussenegg at the University of Graz in Austria is looking into unusual interactions between light and submicroscopic metal particles. The physicists' findings represent a major advance towards the development of improved data storage media and optical sensors.... view more... (2003-02-17)
First large-scale evaluation of iris recognition under way
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has announced that it is running the Iris Challenge Evaluation (ICE), the first large-scale evaluation of iris recognition. view more (2005-08-11)
Researchers advance knowledge of little 'nano-machines' in our body
A discovery by Canada-U.S. biophysicists will improve the understanding of ion channels, akin to little 'nano-machines' or 'nano-valves' in our body, which when they malfunction can cause genetic illnesses that attack muscles, the central nervous system and the heart. view more (2008-12-19)
Turning Waste Material into Ethanol
Say the word "biofuels" and most people think of grain ethanol and biodiesel. But there's another, older technology called gasification that's getting a new look from researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory and Iowa State University. By combining gasification with high-tech nanoscale porous catalysts, they hope... view more... (2008-08-14)
Ferns provide model for tiny motors powered by evaporation
Scientists looked to ferns to create a novel energy scavenging device that uses the power of evaporation to move itself - materials that could provide a method for powering micro and nano devices with just water or heat. view more (2006-09-15)

Self-assembled nanowires could make chips smaller and faster
Researchers at the University of Illinois have found a new way to make transistors smaller and faster. The technique uses self-assembled, self-aligned, and defect-free nanowire channels made of gallium arsenide. view more (2009-04-21)
Molecule tracking reveals mechanism of chromosome separation in dividing cells
University of Washington (UW) researchers are helping to write the operating manual for the nano-scale machine that separates chromosomes before cell division. view more (2009-03-09)
Silica smart bombs deliver knock-out to bacteria
Bacteria mutate for a living, evading antibiotic drugs while killing tens of thousands of people in the United States each year. view more (2008-02-26)
DNA computing targets West Nile Virus, other deadly diseases
Researchers say that they have developed a DNA-based computer that could lead to faster, more accurate tests for diagnosing West Nile Virus and bird flu. view more (2006-10-17)

Going smaller could bring better results, especially when it comes to cancer-fighting drugs. view more (2009-11-02)
Semiconducting nanotubes produced in quantity at Duke
After announcing last April a method for growing exceptionally long, straight, numerous and well-aligned carbon cylinders only a few atoms thick, a Duke University-led team of chemists has now modified that process to create exclusively semiconducting versions of these single-walled carbon nanotubes. view more (2009-01-22)
Forget the freezer: Research suggests novel way to control water behavior
Researchers may be able to "freeze" water into a solid, not by cooling but by confining it to narrow spaces less than one-millionth of a millimeter wide, according to new results from an interdisciplinary team of scientists and engineers. view more (2009-02-23)
Radiologists develop scale to help clinicians predict disease severity in infants with NEC
Radiologists at Duke University Medical Center have developed a scale called the Duke Abdominal Assessment Scale (DAAS) to assist clinicians in determining the severity of disease and the need for surgery in infants with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). view more (2009-10-21)
Nano-sized 'trojan horse' to aid nutrition
Researchers from Monash University have designed a nano-sized "trojan horse" particle to ensure healing antioxidants can be better absorbed by the human body. view more (2008-08-25)
Behavior modification could ease concerns about nanoparticles
In an advance that could help ease health and environmental concerns about the emerging nanotechnology industry, scientists are reporting development of technology for changing the behavior of nanoparticles in municipal sewage treatment plants - their main gateway into the environment. view more (2009-11-12)
Make your own microfluidic device with new kit from U-M
A type of device called a "lab-on-a-chip" could bring a new generation of instant home tests for illnesses, food contaminants and toxic gases. But today these portable, efficient tools are often stuck in the lab themselves. Specifically, in the labs of researchers who know how to make them from scratch. view more (2008-07-25)
