A team of researchers from Stony Brook University, SUNY Polytechnic Institute, and George Washington School of Medicine have demonstrated a pioneering method for the rapid visualization and identification of engineered nanoparticles in tissue. The research, detailed in a paper published in Microscopy Research and Technique, is a cost-effective hyperspectral imaging method for nanomaterial analysis that may shed light on nanomaterials’ potential health impacts.
Researchers at the Ruhr-Universitat Bochum (RUB)’s Applied Laser Technologies lab have used laser beams to assemble microscopic components into bigger structures. In the future, this technology could enable the manufacture of machines and structures with dimensions of just a few microns, and could also help to design micro-robots. The study was led by Prof Dr. Cemal Esen from RUB. This technique.
A Los Alamos-led research team has developed a new water-removal technique that improves the performance of carbon nanomaterials used in fuel cells and batteries. This latest study provides a complete understanding about the critical role water plays in forming catalysts to reduce oxygen in materials. This discovery presents new avenues for designing advanced carbon nanomaterials for batteries and fuel cells.
Micro and nanorobots that attack tumors with the most precision using drug could be the way to combat cancer in the future. The development of magnetoelectric-controlled Janus machines by a team of ETH researchers, headed by Salvador Pané, has the potential for such advances.
Dr Themis Prodromakis, Reader in Nanoelectronics, University of Southampton, discusses how nanotechnology will play a major role in today’s contemporary life. The article has been published in The Conversation.
The printing process continuously evolved since the days of Johannes Gutenberg. A new technique has been developed by a team of researchers at NASA Ames and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, to print nanomaterials onto three-dimensional objects or flexible surfaces, such as a cloth or paper, using plasma. The breakthrough process has potential to help build devices, such as integrated circuits, flexible memory devices and batteries, wearable chemical and biological sensors, easily and cost-effectively.
The fabric used to make the ski suits incorporates Directa Plus’ Graphene Plus (G+), which makes the material both bacteriostatic and electrostatic, thereby reducing the friction with air and water to enable top sporting performance. In addition, the thermally conductive properties of the suits mean they are able to act as a filter between the body and the external environment, ensuring that the wearer always remains at an ideal temperature.
Breakthrough nanotechnology research on self-cleaning textiles by scientists at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, could help people to clean their clothes with a spot of sunshine.
A group of researchers at Brown University have demonstrated a new way to fabricate super-crumpled and super-wrinkled sheets of graphene. Graphene is a nanomaterial that exhibits interesting properties. The study reveals that topography can boost some of the unique properties of graphene.
Real-time, in situ monitoring of the self-assembly of nanocrystal structures has been made possible by a team of researchers using a combination of technologies, including controlled solvent evaporation and synchrotron X-ray scattering, paving the way for researchers to gain insights into the mechanisms behind the self-assembly of these structures.
