RNA nanostructures chemically modified to be resistant to degradation retain 3D structure and biological activity.
Nanofabricated holograms with lines a few nanomaters apart can twist electron beams and should make possible electron microscopes that will provide better images of nanostructures and may be able to manipulate atoms and electrons.
51 years after Richard Feynman envisioned nanoscience in his famous address, “Plenty of Room at the Bottom,” four extraordinary researchers joined in a roundtable discussion of the future of nanoscience.
Robert A. Freitas Jr. has made available his chapter on nanorobotics from the book The Future of Aging.
A one-molecule robot capable of following a trail of chemical breadcrumbs will be presented at TEDxCaltech-Feynman’s Vision: The Next 50 Years.
Palo Alto, CA – December 20, 2010 – The Foresight Institute, a nanotechnology education and public policy think tank based in Palo Alto, has announced the winners of the prestigious 2010 Foresight Institute Feynman Prizes in Nanotechnology. Established in 1993 in honor of Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman, two $5,000 prizes are awarded in two… Continue reading Feynman Prizes in Nanotechnology Awarded by Foresight Institute
The formation of a supramolecular bilayer is induced by buckyball guest molecules.
Singapore and European Union launch project to create and test a molecular-sized processor chip.
High-performance metal-insulator-metal (MIM) diodes made possibe by controlling quantum mechanical tunneling through an ultrathin insulator could change modern electronics.
Hogg and Freitas provide a theoretical analysis of the power constraints when nanorobots rely entirely on ambient bloodstream oxygen and glucose and identify aspects of nanorobot design that significantly affect available power.
