Accelerators and Light Sources of Tomorrow
Accelerators are far from achieving the highest energies their builders aspire to, but size and cost may limit the kinds of facilities funding agencies can support. In the future, new kinds of machines will be needed to make further progress. Perhaps the most promising is the laser plasma accelerator.
Disentangling a billion dollar opportunity ? Quantum information
The field of quantum information processing has come a long way in the past five years, partly thanks to a £10 million grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) which has helped focus activity in this potentially lucrative field.
MSU study sheds light on microscopic flower petal ridges
Known for 75 years, the exact biological function and nature of the flower nanoridges still eludes scientists.
DOE grant funds innovative nanotechnology research at UNL
Nanoscientists at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have received a prestigious grant to develop new magnetic materials that could help reduce global warming and the nation's dependence on foreign resources.
Adjusting acidity with impunity
How do individual cells or proteins react to changing pH levels? Researchers at the MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology at the University of Twente have developed a technique for ?gently? adjusting pH: in other words, without damaging biomolecules.
Scandinavian cleanroom collaboration
Access to advanced cleanrooms is crucial in order for companies to develop new products based on nanotechnology.
An Easy Way to See the World?s Thinnest Material
Researchers use the dye fluorescein to create a new imaging technique to view graphene, a one-atom thick sheet that scientists believe could be used to produce low-cost carbon-based transparent and flexible electronics.
Scientists create world's first molecular transistor
The researchers were able to manipulate the molecule's different energy states depending on the voltage they applied to it through the contacts. By manipulating the energy states, they were able to control the current passing through the molecule.
Molecular Freight: Synthetic nanoscale transport system modeled on nature
Just like our roads, there is a lot of traffic within the cells in our bodies, because cell components, messenger molecules, and enzymes must also be brought to the right places in the cell.
New Nanopore Technique Facilitates Faster, Cheaper Genome Analyses
Ultra-fast, low-cost genomic sequencing and profiling may some day accelerate the pace of biological discovery and enable clinicians to quickly and precisely diagnose patients? susceptibility to disease and tolerance of selected drugs.
