Boiling Breakthrough: Nano-Coating Doubles Rate of Heat Transfer
February 15, 2012 — The old saw that a watched pot never boils may not apply to pots given an ultra-thin layer of aluminum oxide, which researchers have reported can double the heat transfer from a hot surface to a ... > full story -
Nanotechnology May Lead to More Energy-Efficient Electronics
February 14, 2012 — Carbon nanotubes and graphene consist of just a couple of layers of carbon atoms, but they are lighter than aluminium, stronger than steel and can bend like spring-coils. Physicists have been ... > full story -
What Lies Beneath: Mapping Hidden Nanostructures Within Materials, and Perhaps Cells
February 10, 2012 — A new method to map nanostructures within materials may lead to biological imaging of the internal organization of ... > full story -
