Catching and releasing tiny molecules
New technique for sorting biomolecules could lead to efficient clinical diagnostics and chemical purification.
New technique could bring quality-control tool for nanocomposites
Layered nanocomposites containing tiny structures mixed into a polymer matrix are gaining commercial use, but their complex nature can hide defects that affect performance. Now researchers have developed a system capable of detecting such defects using a Kelvin probe scanning method with an atomic force microscope.
Health-conscious concrete
Roads that self-repair, bridges filled with first-aid bubbles, buildings with arteries...not some futuristic fantasy but a very real possibility with 'smart' concrete.
Toward a more realistic picture of how molecules move within cells
A candid photo can reveal much more about the mood of a party than a stiff, posed picture. The same might be true for molecules, according to researchers.
Ultra-thin silicon films create vibrant optical colors
A new technology, which creates a rainbow of optical colors with ultra-thin layers of silicon, has been recently demonstrated.
Catch-release-repeat: Study reveals novel technique for handling molecules
Researchers describe a method capable of mimicking Nature's ability to sort, capture, transport and release molecules. The technique sets the stage for continuous and efficient manipulation of a broad range of molecules of relevance to human and environmental health.
Landmark study proves that magnets can control heat and sound
Experiment reveals new mysterious properties of sound waves.
Serious about taking graphene to the mainstream?
The Commercial Graphene Show Europe is the only place where the entire graphene value chain will come together to discuss hwo graphene can and will impact your industry.
Squid-inspired 'invisibility stickers' could help you evade detection in the dark (w/video)
Squid are the ultimate camouflage artists, blending almost flawlessly with their backgrounds so that unsuspecting prey can't detect them. Using a protein that's key to this process, scientists have designed 'invisibility stickers' that could one day help soldiers disguise themselves, even when sought by enemies with tough-to-fool infrared cameras.
Graphene applications in mobile communication
No matter what the wireless standard, signal processing could not be done without the filtering of frequencies. Micro-acoustic piezoelectric resonators are the dominant technology in the market for this purpose. Theory predicts excellent oscillation characteristics for these resonators, if the electrode used for the excitation of the oscillation becomes very light. And the lightest conceivable electrode is electrically conductive graphene.
A graphene solution for microwave interference
Physicists have found that a graphene plane can provide an effective absorbent shield against microwaves.
