Researchers Discover Nanoscale Particles that Ordinary Light Sources can Set Spinning

Science fiction deals with a number of fanciful devices that permit light to interact in a forceful manner with matter, from photon-drive rockets to light sabers. In the past few years, science has indeed begun to catch up; a few results hint at attractive real-world interactions between light and matter at atomic scales, and devices such as vortex beams, tweezers, and optical tractor beams have been developed by researchers.

Researchers Produce Graphene Membrane for Dialysis Applications

By definition, dialysis is a process in which molecules are filtered out of a solution by getting diffused through a membrane into a comparatively dilute solution. Apart from hemodialysis in which waste is eliminated from blood, researchers employ dialysis for removing residue from chemical solutions, purifying drugs, and for isolating molecules for medical diagnosis, generally by making the materials to go through a porous membrane.
