In this interview Brian O'Connor speaks to AZoNano about how piezo controller design influences thermal stability.
Quantum computing uses qubits - bits of data that represent 1 and 0 simultaneously. Could graphene be the answer to hosting a qubit state?
Prof. Antje J. Baeumner, University Regensburg, Institute for Analytical Chemistry, talks to AZoNano about her research into novel Nanomaterials for improved food safety.
The 2018 Pittcon Conference & Expo is the ideal place to learn about the latest trends in nanotechnology and nanomaterial characterization.

This article looks at AFM force mapping of proteins to improve bioceramic implant fixation.
The fixed hexagonal structure of graphene exhibits a fixed atomic arrangement. Within this structure exists the Diract point, which occurs as a result of the energy to movement relation in graphene existing in a linear fashion near the six individual corners of the hexagonal structure.

Cancer is often referred to as “smart,” and this term often refers to the ability of these cells to proliferate without purpose or restraint. The ability of cancer cells to develop multidrug resistance (MDR), a major problem that patients can face, making treatment against this disease even more elusive.

The research and study area of tribology is one of the most interdisciplinary areas in science today. In short, tribology is the study of interacting surfaces in relative motion.

Tribology is the study of interacting surfaces in motion and the measurement of properties such as friction, wear and abrasion. When designing nanoscale devices the consideration of tribology is particularly important because the high surface area ratio enhances problems with friction and wear.
