Researchers simulate fast, accurate DNA sequencing through graphene nanopore (w/video)
Researchers have simulated a new concept for rapid, accurate gene sequencing by pulling a DNA molecule through a tiny, chemically activated hole in graphene and detecting changes in electrical current.
How to make a low-cost yet high-precision glass nanoengraving
Focusing the laser was conducted with the help of small glass spheres, playing the role of the lens. This mechanism allows inexpensively and relatively easy to apply complex patterns to a glass surface, whereby obtaining a spatial resolution of less than 100 nanometers.
Graphene tunes in to new frequency
The fascinating electrical properties of graphene have allowed researchers to open up a new area of technology using terahertz lasers.
Researchers show how mother-of-pearl is formed from nanoparticles
Materials scientists have shown for the first time that the mother-of-pearl in clam shells does not form in a crystallisation process but is a result of the aggregation of nanoparticles within an organic matrix.
Ferroelectricity - Ambiguity clarified, and resolved
Novel technique accurately distinguishes rare material property linked to improving sensors and computers.
