Researchers at The University of Nottingham have a new weapon in their arsenal of tools to push back the boundaries of science, engineering, veterinary medicine and archaeology. From soils and sediments, to chunks of pavement, archaeological remains and chocolate bars... the Nanotom, the most advanced 3D X-ray micro Computed Tomography (CT) scanner in the world, will help scientists from a wide variety of departments across the University literally see through solids.
The equipment in the new facility, which includes an Orion Microscope and a Focused Ion Beam, will make high-speed, non-volatile and low-power computer memory a reality and make it possible to carry out fast prototyping and to develop smaller, faster and more powerful single electron devices. Research teams are also working on a method of mass producing point of care blood testing kits.
Cold weather poses a threat to human health and can cause adverse affects such as reduced physiological functions, work performance and wellbeing. Constantly evolving development is required to ensure that textile advanc...
Advances in the understanding of the charge transport and the factors that affect electroluminescence efficiency in SWNTs are necessary to develop nanoscale light sources.
The Eclipse LV150L is the latest addition to Nikon’s renowned LV series of industrial microscopes. Designed especially for episcopic illumination, the LV150L is the ideal, cost-effective instrument for a wide variety of production line applications involving opaque workpieces.
Stimulating the economy - The Swiss National Science Foundation has approved 28 additional technology transfer projects for National Centres of Competence in Research in the hopes of stimulating the economy both in the s...
In the field of rubber mixing, countless articles and texts highlight the chemist's skill in balancing the chemical and physical properties of the manufactured products. In most cases, experimenters have been concerned with how recipe changes affect the product properties while the physical processes are not considered. For the rubber processor, however, it is these mechanical operations which form the heart of his business.
Researchers from the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN) and University College London (UCL) have fabricated sub-30 nm luminescent features of an organic semiconductor via spatially selective conversion and patterning of its precursor by using a heatable, micron-size scanning probe. The results will soon be reported in the journal Nature Nanotechnology.
The Centre, which is housed in the University of Southampton’s new Mountbatten Building, is one of Europe's leading multidisciplinary and state-of-the-art clean room complexes. It is a key element in maintaining the University's global reputation for world-leading research in nanotechnology and photonics.
To find a magnetic monopole is a Holy Grail of physics. A magnetic monopole is the magnetic version of a charged particle like an electron, and for the last 70 years physicists have believed that one might exist somewhere in the universe. The monopoles discovered this week are not that Holy Grail, but are the next best thing.
