Nanoparticle research by Professor Sanku Mallik and his group at North Dakota State University, Fargo, appears in the July issue of the Review of Ophthalmology in the article 'Nanoparticles: Into the New Frontier.'
Carl Zeiss SMT yesterday was presented with a 2008 Editors' Choice Best Product Award from Semiconductor International magazine in recognition of the revolutionary break-through performance of its ORION Helium Ion Microscope.
A novel super-resolution X-ray microscope developed by a team of researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) and EPFL in Switzerland combines the high penetration power of x-rays with high spatial resolution, making it possible for the first time to
Fibre imprinting nanotechnology developed at the MacDiarmid Institute of Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology at the University of Canterbury is going to get rugby fans closer than ever to the All Blacks. The names of as many as 100,000 fans are
Research into new types of solar cells produced by nanotechnology will be described by Professor Darren Bagnall at the World Renewable Energy Conference in Glasgow which begins tomorrow.
Ein neuartiges Roentgenmikroskop mit Superaufloesung, das von einem Forscherteam des Paul Scherrer Instituts (PSI) und der ETH Lausanne (EPFL) in der Schweiz entwickelt wurde, kombiniert die hohe Durchdringungsleistung von Roentgenstrahlen mit einer hohen bildlichen Aufloesung und ermoeglicht es somit erstmals,
Any drug intended for systemic administration and all medical devices which will contact blood must undergo thorough biocompatibility testing. These tests include an in vitro assay to determine the material's potential to damage red blood cells (hemolysis). Hemolysis, the abnormal
An international team of scientists has shown that semiconductor nanotubes can be attracted to and aligned on surfaces chemically modified with amino groups, while surfaces with phenyl groups attract metallic nanotubes.
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered a new technique for growing single-crystal nanorods and controlling their shape using biomolecules. The research, published in the journal Advanced Materials, could enable the development of smaller, more powerful heat
