They used the world's most advanced electron microscope to make three-dimensional images of the nano-particles that are at the heart of the process. The results provide improved understanding of bone, tooth and shell formation. For industrial applications, they promise better materials and processes based on nature itself. The findings form the cover story of Science magazine's Friday 13 March edition. http://www.physorg.com/news156089519.html Nanotechnology Thu, 12 Mar 2009 15:12:43 EST news156089519 Standardized video coding techniques still have their snags -- digitally transmitted images are not always disruption-free.
