'Goldilocks material' could change spintronics
Researchers demonstrate new class of zero-moment half metallic magnets, which may enhance data storage and wireless transmission speeds.
Building shape inspires new material discovery
Physicists inspired by the radical shape of a Canberra building have created a new type of material which enables scientists to put a perfect bend in light. The creation of a so-called topological insulator could transform the telecommunications industry's drive to build an improved computer chip using light.
Scientists build a nanolaser using a single atomic sheet
Scientists have built a new nanometer-sized laser - using the thinnest semiconductor available today - that is energy efficient, easy to build and compatible with existing electronics.
Switchable adhesion principle enables damage-free handling of sensitive devices even in vacuum
Researchers have enhanced the Gecko adhesion principle such that adhesion can be switched on and off in vacuum.
Possibilities for graphene-integrated polymer composites in dental prostheses ans medical implants
Graphene solutions provider 2-DTech and dental implant specialist Evodental are currently in the process of carrying out preliminary investigative work into the prospects of applying graphene within the field of dentistry.
Nanotechnology platform shows promise for treating pancreatic cancer
Researchers create new method that targets tumors with the same effectiveness but a significant reduction in both side effects and cost.
