Shape-shifting sensor can report conditions from deep in the body
Scientists have devised and demonstrated a new, shape-shifting probe which is capable of sensitive, high-resolution remote biological sensing that is not possible with current technology.
Nanoscale 'worms' provide new route to nano-necklace structures
Researchers have developed a novel technique for crafting nanometer-scale necklaces based on tiny star-like structures threaded onto a polymeric backbone. The technique could provide a new way to produce hybrid organic-inorganic shish kebab structures from semiconducting, magnetic, ferroelectric and other materials that may afford useful nanoscale properties.
State-of-the-art online system unveiled to pinpoint metrology software accuracy
The results of a three-year research project mean that advanced manufacturing companies will have on-line access to a new method of testing the accuracy of their crucial measurement software.
Novel nanocomposite coatings combine protection with colour effects
Incorporating colored pigments in nanocomposites make coatings possible which are not only protective but also deliver additional visual information via their coloration.
A first glimpse inside a macroscopic quantum state
Scientists have detected, for the first time, entanglement among individual photon pairs in a beam of squeezed light.
Frustration produces a quantum playground
A deeper understanding of quantum fluctuations in 'frustrated' layered magnetic crystals could speed the development of devices that probe real-world systems using quantum effects.
