By fusing wet and dry nanotechnologies, researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have found a way to control the flow of water through carbon nanotube membranes with an unprecedented level of precision. view more (2007-02-14)
One million visitors to solar eclipse website
The website resides at http://www.eclipse.org.uk and was set up by CLRC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in response to a need to explain to the public exactly what to expect during the first total eclipse of the sun visible from the UK for 72 years. view more (1999-01-15)
Press Conference: Digital Radio Mondiale To Reveal Latest Progress Toward Digital AM
As its launch date draws closer, Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) will reveal its latest technical progress toward digital AM in a bilingual press conference (German/English) at IFA 2001 on Monday, August 27th. The event will feature DRM Chairman (and Deutsche Welle Chief Engineer) Peter Senger, DRM Director of Press & Communications Siriol Evans,... view more... (2001-08-23)
Sandia researchers construct carbon nanotube device that can detect colors of the rainbow
Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories have created the first carbon nanotube device that can detect the entire visible spectrum of light, a feat that could soon allow scientists to probe single molecule transformations, study how those molecules respond to light, observe how the molecules change shapes, and understand other fundamental... view more...

Watching the radio
The days are over when all that radio listeners could expect were words and music. At the International Audio and Video Fair (IFA) in Berlin, researchers from the Applied Electronics Department of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS presented multimedia radio. It is able to transmit small-sized moving pictures as well as sound.... view more... (1999-09-03)
Add nanotubes and stir - with the right force
Polymer scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology have some stirring results to share with researchers and companies developing new, advanced composite materials with carbon nanotubes-mix carefully. view more (2006-07-24)
Computer model maps strengths, weaknesses of nanotubes
In theory, carbon nanotubes are 100 times stronger than steel, but in practice, scientists have struggled make nanotubes that live up to those predictions, in part, because there are still many unanswered questions about how nanotubes break and under what conditions. view more (2006-03-28)
National award for combating the effects of rain on radio signals
In wet and snowy weather, microwave and radio signals can become severely weakened. This is bad news for anyone who wants to be able to guarantee a reliable service whatever the weather, such as mobile phone companies and radio stations. By measuring how badly the test microwave signals fade, however, scientists in the Radiocommunications Unit at... view more... (2000-03-13)
DNA-wrapped carbon nanotubes serve as sensors in living cells
Single-walled carbon nanotubes wrapped with DNA can be placed inside living cells and detect trace amounts of harmful contaminants using near infrared light. view more (2006-01-27)
New theory explains electronic and thermal behavior of nanotubes
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have made an important theoretical breakthrough in the understanding of energy dissipation and thermal breakdown in metallic carbon nanotubes. view more (2006-01-20)
Fraunhofer inducted into Hall of Fame
Digital radio ensures interference-free radio reception in CD quality. To achieve digital-radio standards nevertheless requires a great deal of development work since the transmitter and receiver systems greatly differ from conventional, analog devices. During the conception phase of the XM Satellite Radio project, a Fraunhofer team convincingly... view more... (2002-06-07)
New nanotube coating enables novel laser power meter
The U.S. military can now calibrate high-power laser systems, such as those intended to defuse unexploded mines, more quickly and easily thanks to a novel nanotube-coated power measurement device developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2009-05-11)
Researchers generate hydrogen without the carbon footprint
A greener, less expensive method to produce hydrogen for fuel may eventually be possible with the help of water, solar energy and nanotube diodes that use the entire spectrum of the sun's energy, according to Penn State researchers. view more (2008-07-16)
Jefferson and Delaware researchers combine tiny nanotubes and antibodies to detect cancer
By coating the surfaces of tiny carbon nanotubes with monoclonal antibodies, biochemists and engineers at Jefferson Medical College and the University of Delaware have teamed up to detect cancer cells in a tiny drop of water. view more (2005-11-17)
Northwestern researchers develop bistable nanoswitch
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have been under intense study by scientists all over the world for more than a decade and are being thought of as ideal building blocks for nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). view more (2006-10-16)
The original nanoworkout -- Helping carbon nanotubes get into shape
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a new method of compacting carbon nanotubes into dense bundles. view more (2007-06-07)
Researchers help sort out the carbon nanotube problem
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and university researchers report a significant step toward sorting out the nanotube "problem"-the challenge of overcoming processing obstacles so that the remarkable properties of the tiny cylindrical structures can be exploited in new polymer composite materials of exceptional... view more...

Batteries get a boost at Rice
Need to store electricity more efficiently? Put it behind bars. That's essentially the finding of a team of Rice University researchers who have created hybrid carbon nanotube metal oxide arrays as electrode material that may improve the performance of lithium-ion batteries. view more (2009-02-10)
Asteroid Hunting
A lot of attention has been paid in recent years to the asteroid threat issue. The International Asteroid Patrol has been set up to monitor the flight of potentially dangerous celestial rocks in visual diapason. However, the accuracy of optical methods for determining the trajectory leaves much to be desired. That accounts for inaccuracy of... view more... (2003-03-07)
