Frozen lightning: NIST's new nanoelectronic switch
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated a prototype nanoscale electronic switch that works like lightning—except for the speed. view more (2007-03-05)
Junior award for bronze structures
The German Society of Electroplating and Surface Technology (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Galvano- und Oberfl'¤chentechnik e.V., DGO,) has honoured Dipl.-Ing. Gabriele Goet with the DGO-Award 2002. The prize is awarded once a year for valuable scientific contributions in the fields of electroplating and surface technology. Gabriele Goet is... view more... (2002-11-28)
Young Chalmers Professor Awarded - again!
Professor Owe Orwar of the Department of Physical Chemistry at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, will in March this year receive another prestigious prize, the 2003 Pittsburgh Conference Achievement Award. The award symposium will be presented at PITTCON 2003 to be held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando,... view more... (2003-01-16)
New fabrication technique yields nanoscale UV LEDs
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in collaboration with scientists from the University of Maryland and Howard University, have developed a technique to create tiny, highly efficient light-emitting diodes (LEDs) from nanowires. view more (2007-05-29)
Small optical force can budge nanoscale objects
With a bit of leverage, Cornell researchers have used a very tiny beam of light with as little as 1 milliwatt of power to move a silicon structure up to 12 nanometers. That's enough to completely switch the optical properties of the structure from opaque to transparent, they reported. view more (2009-11-18)
Looking deeply into polymer solar cells
Researchers from the Eindhoven University of Technology and the University of Ulm have made the first high-resolution 3D images of the inside of a polymer solar cell. view more (2009-09-14)
Writing at the nanoscale
At the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, scientists have developed a new chemical "writing" technique that can create lines of "ink" only a few tens of nanometers, or billionths of a meter, in width. view more (2005-08-29)
Argonne theorist gains new insight into the nature of nanodiamond
The newest promising material for advanced technology applications is diamond nanotubes, and research at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory is giving new insight into the nature of nanodiamond. view more (2005-09-12)
Geotimes: The impending coastal crisis
Coastlines are the most dynamic feature on the planet. In the March issue, Geotimes magazine looks into the risks of increased development along our coastlines and what that means for erosion, flooding and future development. view more (2008-03-13)
Finding by Rice University chemists could aid development of new nanodevices
Rice University chemists have discovered that tiny building blocks known as gold nanorods spontaneously assemble themselves into ring-like superstructures. view more (2007-03-12)
Nano propellers pump with proper chemistry
The ability to pump liquids at the cellular scale opens up exciting possibilities, such as precisely targeting medicines and regulating flow into and out of cells. But designing this molecular machinery has proven difficult. view more (2007-07-17)
Unexpectedly long-range effects in advanced magnetic devices
A tiny grid pattern has led materials scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Institute of Solid State Physics in Russia to an unexpected finding-the surprisingly strong and long-range effects of certain electromagnetic nanostructures used in data storage. view more (2009-07-02)
'Normal' cells far from cancer give nanosignals of trouble
A new Northwestern University-led study of human colon, pancreatic and lung cells is the first to report that cancer cells and their non-cancerous cell neighbors, although quite different under the microscope, share very similar structural abnormalities on the nanoscale level. view more (2009-07-08)
Evolution in the Nanoworld
The automatic molecular assembly and selection steps exhibited by the molecules, which start as random mixtures, demonstrates a fundamental step in the evolution of life. view more (2007-10-31)
Measurements from the edge: magnetic properties of thin films
Materials researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), together with colleagues from IBM and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, have pushed the measurement of thin films to the edge-literally-to produce the first data on how the edges of metallic thin films contribute to their magnetic properties. view more (2007-10-01)
Tension in the nanoworld
A joint team of researchers at CIC nanoGUNE (San Sebastian, Spain) and the Max Planck Institutes of Biochemistry and Plasma Physics (Munich, Germany) report the non-invasive and nanoscale resolved infrared mapping of strain fields in semiconductors. view more (2009-01-26)
New statistical technique improves precision of nanotechnology data
A new statistical analysis technique that identifies and removes systematic bias, noise and equipment-based artifacts from experimental data could lead to more precise and reliable measurement of nanomaterials and nanostructures likely to have future industrial applications. view more (2009-07-01)
Simplicity is crucial to design optimization at nanoscale
MIT researchers who study the structure of protein-based materials with the aim of learning the key to their lightweight and robust strength have discovered that the particular arrangement of proteins that produces the sturdiest product is not the arrangement with the most built-in redundancy or the most complicated pattern. view more (2009-02-05)
