Spin-polarized electrons on demand
Many hopes are pinned on spintronics. In the future it could replace electronics, which in the race to produce increasingly rapid computer components, must at sometime reach its limits. Different from electronics, where whole electrons are moved (the digital "one" means "an electron is present on the component", zero means... view more... (2009-01-22)

Towards the mechanism of cell respiration
Researchers at the Institute of Biotechnology of the University of Helsinki have for the first time identified an internal electron transfer reaction that initiates the proton pump mechanism of the respiratory enzyme. view more (2006-04-06)
Delft University of Technology rotates electron spin with electric field
Researchers at the Delft University of Technology's Kavli Institute of Nanoscience and the Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (FOM) have succeeded in controlling the spin of a single electron merely by using electric fields. view more (2007-11-02)
Beating Heart Bypass Surgery Reduces Postoperative Complications...
Results of a study in this week's issue of THE LANCET suggest that coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery done on the beating heart reduces the risk of short-term complications compared with conventional bypass surgery. CABG surgery on the beating heart (off-pump surgery) is increasingly being used when restoring coronary artery blood flow as... view more... (2002-04-04)
Memory in artificial atoms
Three of our nano-physicists have made a discovery that can change the way we store data on our computers. This means that in the future we can store data much faster, and more accurate. Their discovery has been published in the scientific journal Nature Physics. view more (2008-04-08)
Controversial "beating heart" method proves better than standard procedure
Patients needing second-time or "re-do" heart surgery have a new safer alternative. New findings show that an "off-pump" surgical procedure is performed safely and has improved outcomes for patients than traditional methods. view more (2004-09-26)
Letting the spin loose
Two properties of an electron-its spin and its charge-are generally thought to be inseparable, intrinsic characteristics, no more given to sudden changes or going off on their own than say, the fur on a cat or the paint on a bicycle. But a team of scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science has recently demonstrated conclusively that, in very... view more... (2005-07-13)
Atoms looser than expected
All the atoms in the universe just got looser, at least in the eyes of humans. No, the laws of physics didn't change overnight, but our knowledge of how strong atoms are held together did have to be readjusted a bit in light of a new experiment conducted at Harvard University. view more (2006-08-16)
Cholera pathogen reveals how bacteria generate energy to live
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered new details about how bacteria generate energy to live. In two recently published papers, the scientists add key specifics to the molecular mechanism behind the pathogen that causes cholera. view more (2007-01-30)
Potential leap forward in electron microscopy
MIT electrical engineers have proposed a new scheme that can overcome a critical limitation of high-resolution electron microscopes: they cannot be used to image living cells because the electrons destroy the samples. view more (2009-10-07)
Structural mechanism of the E. coli drug efflux pump AcrB
In a new study published online in the open access journal PLoS Biology, Gaby Sennhauser, Marcus Gruetter, and colleagues use structural biology techniques to probe the molecular mechanisms of the major drug efflux pump in E. coli AcrB. view more (2006-12-27)
Commonly used ulcer drugs may offer treatment potential in Alzheimer's disease
In a new study, published in the May issue of Elsevier's Experimental Neurology, scientists at the University of British Columbia have discovered that drugs commonly used to treat ulcers have significant neuroprotective properties, which appear to be enhanced when used in combination with ibuprofen, a widely used anti-inflammatory drug. view more (2009-04-22)
NRL researchers develop optical technique for controlling electron spins in quantum dot ensembles
Scientists are closer to developing novel devices for optics-based quantum computing and quantum information processing, as a result of a breakthrough in understanding how to make all the spins in an ensemble of quantum dots identical. view more (2007-11-16)
New design for transistors powered by single electrons
Scientists have demonstrated the first reproducible, controllable silicon transistors that are turned on and off by the motion of individual electrons. view more (2006-02-03)
Full 3-D image of nanocrystals' interior created by shining X-rays through them
A vital step towards the ultimate goal of being able to take 'photographs' of individual molecules in action has been achieved by an international team led by UCL (University College London) researchers at the London Centre for Nanotechnology. view more (2006-07-06)
Proton pump inhibitors increase risk of heart attacks for patients on common cardiac drug
Patients taking the common cardiac drug clopidogrel following a heart attack are at a significantly higher risk of a recurrence if they are also taking widely used acid-lowering medications called proton pump inhibitors, a new study published online in CMAJ has found (http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/rapidpdf/cmaj.082001). view more (2009-01-29)
Hi-tech research develops lo-tech scheme to bring electricity to thousands in Third World
Technology of the past is being turned on its head by researchers at The Nottingham Trent University to give villagers in developing countries a better future. They have hit on an ingenious new plan to provide electricity to remote rural areas using one of the oldest pieces of technology - the standard pump. The idea of producing electricity by... view more... (2002-09-20)
Natural deep earth pump fuels earthquakes and ore
For the first time scientists have discovered the presence of a natural deep earth pump that is a crucial element in the formation of ore deposits and earthquakes. view more (2009-06-18)
UC Santa Barbara researchers light up 'dark' spins in diamond
Researchers at UC Santa Barbara have potentially opened up a new avenue toward room temperature quantum information processing. By demonstrating the ability to image and control single isolated electron spins in diamond, they unexpectedly discovered a new channel for transferring information to other surrounding spins - an initial step towards... view more...
