02/03/09 - Nano-sonar Uses Electrons To Measure Under The Surface
Just as sonar sends out sound waves to explore the hidden depths of the ocean, electrons can be used by scanning tunnelling microscopes to investigate the well-hidden properties of the atomic lattice of metals. Read More 
07/02/09 - Nanoscale Materials Grow With The Flow
Imagine unloading a pile of bricks onto the ground and watching the bricks assemble themselves into a level, straight wall in only a few minutes. While merely a fantasy for builders in the everyday world, these types of self-assembled structures are a reality for those who build materials in the nanoworld. Read More 
18/02/09 - Need to store electricity more efficiently? Put it behind bars.
Lithium-Ion batteries have better performance with new electrode material - hybrid carbon nanotube metal oxide arrays as electrode material that may improve the performance of lithium-ion batteries. Read more. |
