Is Nanotechnology the Answer to an Environmentally Sustainable Future?

With the topic of HiPerNano 2018 being Clean Growth, the researchers and industrialist speakers were keen to share their findings on how nanotechnology can help to overcome environmental challenges, including nanotechnology in clean mobility and the development of environmentally friendly nanomaterials.

An Ultra-Sensitive Graphene FET for Future Sensor Research

Graphenea are known for pushing the barriers of graphene research. They have recently developed a Graphene FET (GFET) which is ready for immediate functionalization. This will save valuable research time and eliminate human error, making graphene research simpler and more efficient.

What are the origins of nanotechnology?

The origin of the field of nanotechnology to a famous lecture given by visionary physicist Richard Feynman back in 1959, entitled “There’s Plenty of Room At The Bottom,” – although at the time, the talk was considered speculative.

Modifying Graphene to be Blood Compatible

In order for it to be used in biosensor applications graphene must be modified to be blood compatible. Research in this area is currently taking place.
