Three-Dimensional Nanoscale Magnetic Circuit for Advanced Computer

Since the late 60´s electronic gadgets have stored and transmitted information (bits) in 2D circuits. Recently, a team of researchers at the University of Cambridge have been able to cross this barrier by developing a nanoscale magnetic circuit that can move information along the three dimensions of space.

Researchers Design Hierarchical Structure of Magnetic Nanoparticles to Study Influence of Symmetry and Shape

In many ways, magnets are still mysterious. They get their (often powerful) effects from the microscopic interactions of individual electrons, and from the interplay between their collective behavior at different scales. But if you can’t move these electrons around to study how factors like symmetry impact the larger-scale magnetic effects, what can you do instead?

Innovative Approach for Targeted Drug Delivery Through Nanodiamond-Enhanced MRI

Nanodiamonds are synthetic industrial diamonds that measure only a few nanometers. Recently, nanodiamonds have attracted significant attention due to their ability to carry out targeted delivery of cancer drugs and vaccines, and for other applications. To date, there have been limited possibilities for imaging nanodiamonds.
