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)
Researchers effectively treat tumors with use of nanotubes
By injecting man-made, microscopic tubes into tumors and heating them with a quick, 30-second zap of a laser, scientists have discovered a way to effectively kill kidney tumors in nearly 80 percent of mice. view more (2009-08-04)

UB Engineers Prove That Carbon Nanotubes Are Superior to Metals for Electronics
In the quest to pack ever-smaller electronic devices more densely with integrated circuits, nanotechnology researchers keep running up against some unpleasant truths: higher current density induces electromigration and thermomigration, phenomena that damage metal conductors and produce heat, which leads to premature failure of devices. view more (2009-03-23)
