New design tool for metamaterials
New study shows how to predict metamaterial nonlinear optical properties.
Buckyballs offer environmental benefits
Treated buckyballs not only remove valuable but potentially toxic metal particles from water and other liquids, but also reserve them for future use.
NSF grant to fund 'revolutionary' electron microscope
A first-of-its-kind electron microscope, which will allow materials to be studied in their natural environments using an electron beam focused down to a subatomic spot.
Nanotechnology discoveries move from lab to marketplace with CNT fabrication process
A recent agreement between The University of Texas at Dallas and Lintec of America is expected to propel scientific discoveries from the University's laboratories into the global marketplace.
Research shows benefits of nanocrystalline silicon carbide for sensors in harsh environments
The use of silicon carbide as a semiconductor for mechanical and electrical sensor devices is showing promise for improved operations and safety in harsh working environments.
Long-term storage of digital information in DNA is possible
It is evident from samples from mammoths, bears, and other fossils: sequenceable DNA can last up to several hundred thousand years. But one does not necessarily need fossil bones as capsules of silica glass spheres can do the same job.
Scientist develops disposable devices to identify allergies
Work is underway on the design of a small medical device capable of detecting allergies or diseases quickly and at a low cost.
Breakthrough may lead to industrial production of graphene devices
With properties that promise faster computers, better sensors and much more, graphene has been dubbed the 'miracle material'. But progress in producing it on an industrial scale without compromising its properties has proved elusive. University of Groningen scientists may now have made a breakthrough.
Scientists devise breakthrough technique for mapping temperature in tiny devices
Approach could lead to better designs for computer chips.
