Using a simple chemical process, scientists at Cornell
and DuPont have invented a method of preparing carbon nanotubes for suspension
in a semiconducting "ink," which can then be printed into such thin,
flexible electronics as transistors and photovoltaic materials.
Scientists at DuPont
and Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., have used a simple chemical process
to convert mixtures of metallic and semiconducting carbon nanotubes into solely
semiconducting carbon nanotubes with electrical characteristics well-suited
for plastic electronics.
Researchers from Harvard
University and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have measured, for
the first time, a repulsive quantum mechanical force that could be harnessed
and tailored for a wide range of new nanotechnology applications.
New pilot-scale research in the Pharmacy Department of the National University
of Singapore is demonstrating the value of the Insitec in-line particle size
analyzer from Malvern Panalytical, for monitoring and control of spray drying processes. Process
Analytical Technology (PAT) options, such as the Insitec, are used increasingly
in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry at the pilot plant stage to enable
Quality by Design.
Arizona State University researchers Hao Yan and Yan Liu imagine and assemble intricate structures on a scale almost unfathomably small. Their medium is the double-helical DNA molecule, a versatile building material offe...
NEI Corporation, a leading developer and manufacturer of nanomaterials, announced that it has been awarded a prestigious NASA Research Announcement contract.
In the initial phase of the contract, the company will use it...
The Advanced Technology Institute at the University of Surrey has been awarded
a major research grant by the energy giant E.ON based in Germany as part of
their 'Application of Nanotechnology in the Energy Business'. The three year
project, led by Professor Ravi Silva, Director of the Advanced Technology Institute,
aims to utilise the nanotechnological expertise of the institute in the design,
fabrication and characterisation of the organic-inorganic hybrid solar cells.
Using tiny gold particles and infrared light, MIT
researchers have developed a drug-delivery system that allows multiple drugs
to be released in a controlled fashion.
Northwestern University team develops new method to reliably produce and sort out double-walled carbon nanotubes; discovery could lower the cost of this dynamic material.
In recent years, the possible applications for...
Researchers at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a method to
measure the toughness—the resistance to fracture—of the thin insulating
films that play a critical role in high-performance integrated circuits. The
new technique could help improve the reliability and manufacturability of ICs
and, better yet, it’s one that state-of-the-art microelectronics manufacturers
can use with equipment they already own.
