NanoSight, leading manufacturers of unique nanoparticle characterization technology, reports on the work of Professor Hang (Hubert) Yin's group at the University of Colorado at Boulder where they apply Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) to characterize biological nanoparticles such as microvesicles.
Leader in plasma etch and deposition processing systems, Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology, has won an order for its recently launched PlasmaPro Estrelas100 deep silicon etch tool, from the University of Toronto follo...
Nanolane presents a study, recently published in PNAS, that deals with the role of bacterium-generated slime (extracellular mucus forming films of 0.1 to 5nm in thickness) on bacterial adhesion and ability to move.
A research team from the North Carolina State University has discovered that the bulkiness of ligands, which are organic molecules utilized in the synthesis of gold nanoparticles, determines the size of the nanoparticles, which means the larger the ligands, the smaller the nanoparticles.
Researchers believe that indium gallium nitride, part of III-nitrides family, is an ideal material for photovoltaic applications because by altering indium concentration the material’s response can be tuned to collect solar energy from different wavelengths.
Although interest on graphene research is growing all across the world, the European Union is lagging in this aspect, especially in applied research.
