Sturdy structures ordered with nanometer precision have now been formed by combining supramolecular assembly of ordered networks with self-assembled monolayers.
A role for nanotech applications can be seen in the responses to the US energy crisis made by both candidates for the US Presidency.
A recent review article delineates engineering principles that may prove valuable for engineering complex nanosystems that can be discerned from the molecular mechanisms by which such biological molecular motors operate and are controlled.
Researchers have demonstrated atomically precise cuts through a few graphene layers.
A novel toroidal-shaped nanoparticle provides a nanotech way to image blood clots without using magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents that are toxic to some patients.
A recent review describes the advantages to nanotech of advances in electron microscopy that allow mapping electron states localized at or between atoms.
A nanotech approach assembles flexible electronic circuits from random networks of single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bundles may provide a nanotech method to activate certain cancer-fighting white blood cells outside a patient’s body in the hope that they will more effectively fight the patient’s cancer upon being returned to the patient.
Researchers at Columbia University have demonstrated that graphene is the strongest known material.
An international team of scientists has shown that semiconductor nanotubes can be attracted to and aligned on surfaces chemically modified with amino groups, while surfaces with phenyl groups attract metallic nanotubes.
