The use of dendritic fibrous nanosilica, or DFNS, has increased in many scientific fields such as solar energy harvesting (solar cells, photocatalysis, etc.), catalysis, surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based ultra-sensitive sensors, energy storage, CO2 capture, biomedical applications (protein and gene delivery, photothermal ablation, drug delivery, bioimaging, Ayurvedic and radiotherapeutics drug delivery, etc.), and self-cleaning antireflective coatings.
An innovative laser system that can be used to shape nanometric gold particles, measuring one-millionths of a millimeter, to enhance their characteristics in photonics and biomedicine has been developed through a research conducted at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM). The study has now been reported in the Science journal.
According to Rice University engineers, pillared graphene would convey heat better if the theoretical material had a few asymmetric junctions that produced wrinkles.
A simple technique for producing very low-density palladium nanofoams could help progress hydrogen storage technologies, reports a new research from the University of California, Davis.
Fundamentally, filtration membranes are sponge-like materials including pores that are micro- or nanoscopically small. Bacteria, undesirable chemicals, and also viruses are physically obstructed by the mesh maze. However, liquids such as water can pass through the maze.
Scientists from the Chalmers University of Technology have developed a flexible detector that can be used in teraHertz frequencies, or at frequencies of 1000 GHz. They achieved this by using graphene transistors on plastic substrates.
One of the major inconveniences of modern display screens experienced while using a computer underneath overhead lighting or adjacent to a window, watching television in complete darkness, or taking a photo outdoors on a sunny day using a smartphone is the phenomenon called glare.
Fatigue caused by repetitive strain is considered to be the primary cause of failure in metal structures and components. However, new research demonstrates how crystalline structures known as nanotwins are capable of slowing the accumulation of fatigue-related damage.
Meshes produced from fibers with nanometer-scale diameters have a broad range of potential applications, including solar cells, water filtration, tissue engineering, and even body armor. However, their commercialization has been hindered by inefficient manufacturing methods.
It is a known fact that silver nanoparticles, or AgNPs, have exceptional antibacterial characteristics and are believed to be a favored candidate in the crucial hunt for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. They have the potential to inhibit enzymes and can make bacteria to have irregularly shaped membranes, leading to outcomes such as restricted growth or even cell death.
