Biomineralization may show nanotechnology how to align atoms in regular arrays with unusual morphologies

A better understanding of how biomineralization converts ordinary minerals to biological mineral structures with extraordinary hardness and fracture resistance may lead to superhard materials for nanotech applications.

Nanotechnology shrinks tumors by targeting two genes

Nanoparticles can introduce two very promising, but easily degraded, therapeutic molecules into a laboratory model of human skin, and together they are much more effective than either is alone is slowing the development of deadly melanoma skin cancer.

New microscope follows nanotechnology cancer treatment in living mice

A noninvasive Raman microscope has allowed scientists to track carbon nanotubes injected into living mice.

Assembling 3D arrays of nanotubes to integrate nanotechnology and microtechnology

A practical nanotech method for integrating single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) with existing silicon microtechnology could lead to uses in microelectronics, field emission displays, electronic memory devices and solar cells.

Nanotechnology to soon provide paper stronger than steel for commercial uses

A nanotech material that consists of about 50% carbon nanotubes may soon find wide commercial applications in aerospace and other industries.

Computational nanotechnology designs more efficient material for solar cells

Combining electrically conductive polymers, transition metal atoms, and spin-coating to form thin films could lead to solar cells with two major advantages that would make them more efficient at converting light to electricity.

Nanotechnology delivers suicide gene to pancreatic cancer cells

Combining a nanotech method of getting genes inside cancer cells with genetic engineering of a potent suicide gene driven by control signals that are very active only in cancer cells effectively killed cell lines derived from pancreatic cancer.

European conference focuses on nanotechnology as alternative to fossil fuels

Nanotech pathways to a sustainable energy economy are generating a great deal of interest in Europe.

Is the patent system stifling nanotechnology?

Will “blocking patents” delay nanotech advances, as has happened with biotechmedical advances?

Self-assembled square arrays may lead nanotechnology to very small electronic devices

Nanotech methods for making very small electronic devices may benefit from a new ability to make block copolymers self-assemble into square arrays.
