Researchers develop foundation for circuitry and devices based on graphite
Graphite, the material that gives pencils their marking ability, could be the basis for a new class of nanometer-scale electronic devices that have the attractive properties of carbon nanotubes - but could be produced using established microelectronics manufacturing techniques.   view more (2006-03-15)

Microprinting Technique for Patterning Single Molecules
A new process for creating patterns of individual molecules on a surface combines control of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and a soft lithography technique known as microcontact printing.   view more (2007-02-05)

At the limits of the photoelectric effect
By way of the classical photoeffect, Einstein proved in 1905 that light also has particle character. However, with extremely high light intensities, remarkable things happen in the process.   view more (2009-04-24)

Milestone in Microsystems Technology
Lithographic processes are applied to manufacturing components of microsystem technology. In X-ray as well as UV ranges the SU-8™ photoresist allows for the production of three-dimensional metallic micro structures with large aspect rations by LIGA (Lithography Electroplating Moulding) processing. Lead by Dr. Holger Löwe, a team of... view more... (2003-10-16)

Breakthrough in nanodevice synthesis revolutionizes biological sensors
A novel approach to synthesizing nanowires (NWs) allows their direct integration with microelectronic systems for the first time, as well as their ability to act as highly sensitive biomolecule detectors that could revolutionize biological diagnostic applications.   view more (2007-02-01)

From glass eyes to colour-fast digital prints
Top quality colour printing could be revolutionised thanks to the revival in Bristol of an old printing process once used to create, among other things, colour charts for selecting glass eyes. Art researchers from the University of the West of England have discovered a 21st century use for the process, known as collotype, which fell out of favour... view more... (2002-06-06)

Toward a quantum computer, one dot at a time

A giant step toward tiny functional nanowires
Carving a telephone pole is easy if you have the right tools, say a power saw and some large chisels. And with some much tinier tools you could even carve a design into a paper clip if you wanted to. But shrink your sights down to the nanoscale, to a nanowire that is 1,000 times smaller than the diameter of a paper clip, and you find there are no... view more... (2005-07-01)
