All-atom molecular dynamics simulations examined how gold tracks embedded in cylindrical silver substrates could guide the diffusive motion of C60, flexible-chassis nanocars, and rigid-chassis nanotrucks across temperatures from 75 K to 600 K. The results show that chassis flexibility, track width, and temperature jointly determine how effectively these molecular machines maintain directed motion.
Researchers engineered HZO-SiO2 nanomechanical resonators that use nanoscale oxide layering and phase-dependent elasticity to suppress temperature-driven frequency drift while retaining electrical tunability. The CMOS-compatible platform combined passive thermal compensation with voltage-controlled stiffness tuning, highlighting how ferroelectric oxide nanostructures could support more stable integrated resonators.
Researchers developed a scalable silicon microneedle electrode using mechanical dicing, KOH etching, and nanostructured platinum to improve dry EEG recording without conductive gels. The nanoPt coating increased electrochemically active surface area by about 15-fold, reduced electrode-skin impedance, and improved proof-of-concept EEG signal quality compared with non-nanostructured platinum-coated microneedles, although conventional wet electrodes still performed better.
Researchers developed an edge-supported nano-thick epidermal electronics platform that combines an approximately 500 nm sensing region with a reinforced 5 µm scaffold for easier handling, release, and reuse. The design enabled water-assisted release and highly conformal skin sensing, with low-impedance sEMG electrodes, a 0.48 ms temperature sensor, and a pressure sensor reaching 62.9 kPa?¹ sensitivity in its most sensitive range.
Researchers developed a nanopore-based ionic memristor that uses localized Joule heating to precipitate cerium sulfate and reversibly block ion transport. The device reproduced synaptic-like memory, learning, chemical sensing, and image-storage functions in a 5 × 4 fluidic array.
This paper proposes a convergent curriculum framework that integrates nanotechnology, MEMS, magnetic materials, and generative and agentic AI to strengthen U.S. advanced-manufacturing workforce development. It argues that future competitiveness depends on stackable credentials, shared lab infrastructure, industry-academia partnerships, and training that links fabrication, metrology, automation, data interpretation, and ethical oversight.
Researchers from Delft University of Technology have developed a novel surface micromachined accelerometer.
