Research measures movement of nanomaterials in simple model food chain
New research shows that while engineered nanomaterials can be transferred up the lowest levels of the food chain from single celled organisms to higher multicelled ones, the amount transferred was relatively low and there was no evidence of the nanomaterials concentrating in the higher level organisms. view more (2008-06-02)
Record breaking quantum encryption
The latest steps towards an uncrackable code have been taken by scientists in both Switzerland and the US, who have found novel ways of generating and transmitting "quantum keys" respectively. Both techniques are reported today, 12 July 2002, in New Journal of Physics, published jointly by the Institute of Physics and the German Physical... view more... (2002-07-10)
New MR Sequence Helps Radiologists More Accurately Evaluate Abnormalities of the Uterus and Ovaries
A new MR imaging sequence, T2-weighted BLADE, used to image the female pelvis improves image quality and helps radiologists make a more accurate diagnosis, according to a study performed at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, MD. view more (2009-04-24)
Method slashes quantum dot costs by 80 percent
In an important advance toward the large-scale manufacture of fluorescent quantum dots, scientists at Rice University have developed a new method of replacing the pricey solvents used in quantum dot synthesis with cheaper oils that are commonplace at industrial chemical plants. view more (2005-09-08)
Vanquishing infinity
Quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of general relativity are both extremely accurate theories of how the universe works, but all attempts to combine the two into a unified theory have ended in failure. view more (2009-08-18)
Argonne researcher studies what makes quantum dots blink
In order to learn more about the origins of quantum dot blinking, researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory, the University of Chicago and the California Institute of Technology have developed a method to characterize it on faster time scales than have previously been accessed. view more (2007-10-05)
Innovative imaging technology for security screening wins business award
A new spin-out company developing innovative imaging technology for the security industry has just won a business plan competition run by the UK research councils. Lord Sainsbury, Minister for Science and Innovation, presented the prizes after listening to presentations from the five finalists. "This competition highlights how world class... view more...

Getting warmer -- Leeds research brings terahertz closer to everyday use
A collaboration between the Universities of Leeds and Harvard has turned the heat up on terahertz technology, bringing a handheld terahertz device a step closer to reality. view more (2008-03-31)
Mechanics: Ordinary meets quantum
At the quantum level, the atoms that make up matter and the photons that make up light behave in a number of seemingly bizarre ways. view more (2009-06-22)
Rice ties in race for atomic-scale breakthrough
Everybody loves a race to the wire, even when the result is a tie. The great irony is the ultraprecise clocks that could result from this competition could probably break any tie. view more (2009-11-18)
Carbon-based quantum dots could mean 'greener' safer technology in medicine and biology
Chemists at Clemson University say they have developed a new type of quantum dot that is the first to be made from carbon. view more (2006-05-24)
University of Warwick Designer Polymer Company Wins Business Equivalent of Pop Idol Competition
A University of Warwick spin-out company specialising in designer polymers has won the prestigious Enterprise Launch Pad award at this year's Cambridge Enterprise Conference. The company, Warwick Effect Polymers, wins £5,000 but also importantly it gives them entrance to a "deal day" where a select group of companies get the... view more... (2002-09-19)
NIST photon detectors have record efficiency
Sensors that detect and count single photons, the smallest quantities of light, with 88 percent efficiency have been demonstrated by physicists at the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST). view more (2005-06-02)
Large-scale cousin of elusive 'magnetic monopoles' found at NIST
Any child can tell you that a magnet has a "north" and a "south" pole, and that if you break it into two pieces, you invariably get two smaller magnets with two poles of their own. But scientists have spent the better part of the last eight decades trying to find, in essence, a magnet with only one pole. view more (2009-10-07)
Tossing a coin in the microcosm
When you toss a coin, you either get heads or tails. By contrast, things are not so definite at the microcosmic level. An atomic 'coin' can display a superposition of heads and tails when it has been thrown. view more (2009-07-10)
Imperial College builds spin-out partnership for future growth
Innovative deal signals long-term partnership between the parties A long-term partnership between Imperial College London and two London-based investment houses will, for the first time, create a route for external investment in the growth of Imperial`s portfolio of spin-out companies. Imperial, Fleming Family & Partners Limited (FF&P) and... view more... (2002-05-15)
Small nanoparticles bring big improvement to medical imaging
If you're watching the complex processes in a living cell, it is easy to miss something important-especially if you are watching changes that take a long time to unfold and require high-spatial-resolution imaging. view more (2009-11-18)
Argonne scientists discover new class of glassy material
Scientists at U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory are dealing with an entirely new type of frustration, but it's not stressing them out. view more (2008-07-29)
Warp speed brings Dirac into the 21st century
You`d be forgiven for thinking that an American predicted anti-matter. Or that it only existed in Star Trek. In fact, it was Paul Dirac, a Bristol born physicist, who predicted the stuff that propels starships in science fiction movies and who has also influenced much of our modern day technology, for example, computers. Today, 8 August is the... view more... (2002-08-06)
First quantum cryptographic data network demonstrated
A joint collaboration between Northwestern University and BBN Technologies of Cambridge, Mass., has led to the first demonstration of a truly quantum cryptographic data network. view more (2006-08-29)
