 'Nanonet' circuits closer to making flexible electronics realityResearchers have overcome a major obstacle in producing transistors from networks of carbon nanotubes, a technology that could make it possible to print circuits on plastic sheets for applications including ... |
Artificial Lotus Effect: Carbon nanotubes with nanoscopic paraffin coating form superhydrophobic, self-cleaning surfacesNever wash your car again? Never clean your windows? These may well become reality if it becomes possible to produce the right coatings—coatings that imitate the self-cleaning effect of the lotus blossom. |
 Engineers Prove Graphene is the Strongest Material(PhysOrg.com) -- Research scientists at Columbia University’s Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science have achieved a breakthrough by proving that the carbon material graphene is the strongest ... |
 First STM spectroscopy of graphene flakes yields new surprises(PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California at Berkeley have performed the first scanning tunneling spectroscopy of ... |
Hydrogen generation without the carbon footprintA 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. ... |
Carbon Nanotubes heralded as ideal candidates for next generation Nanoelectronics(PhysOrg.com) -- Widely regarded as the wonder material of the 21st century, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the intramolecular junctions that connect CNTs for integration have been hailed as the ideal candidates for the next ... |
 A Telescope Made of MoondustA gigantic telescope on the Moon has been a dream of astronomers since the dawn of the space age. A lunar telescope the same size as Hubble (2.4 meters across) would be a major astronomical research tool. ... |
 Super strong antimicrobial coatings for medicine, defenseOne of the world' strongest materials meets one of Nature's most powerful germ killers in a new research project that produced incredibly tough anti-bacterial surfaces with multiple applications in home appliances, ... |
Engineers show nanotube circuits can be made en masseMost innovations don't go far unless there is a way to turn them into products that are manufacturable on a mass scale. That's why new research on carbon nanotubes, presented June 19 by a group of Stanford electrical engineers, ... |
 New nano technique significantly boosts boiling efficiencyWhoever penned the old adage "a watched pot never boils" surely never tried to heat up water in a pot lined with copper nanorods. |
Nanotubes could help study retrovirus transmission between human cells Recent findings by medical researchers indicate that naturally occurring nanotubes may serve as tunnels that protect retroviruses and bacteria in transit from diseased to healthy cells — a fact that may explain why vaccines ... |
 Nanotubes could aid understanding of retrovirus transmission between human cellsRecent findings by medical researchers indicate that naturally occurring nanotubes may serve as tunnels that protect retroviruses and bacteria in transit from diseased to healthy cells — a fact that may explain ... |
 Novel memory device is set to rival transistor-switched silicon-based memoryWorking with an international group of researchers, Professor Gehan Amaratunga has produced a novel memory device which is set to rival transistor-switched silicon-based memory. |
 Water inside single-walled carbon nanotubesResearchers have identified a signature for water inside single-walled carbon nanotubes, helping them understand how water is structured and how it moves within these tiny channels. |
 Carbon Nanotubes Compromise the Functions of Certain Protozoa, Study ShowsA new study by researchers from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, hints that carbon nanotubes may be toxic to microorganisms. When cultures of a certain key protozoan, a single-cell organism, ... |
