Dental Fillings That Kill Bacteria and Re-Mineralize the Tooth
May 1, 2012 Scientists using nanotechology have created the first cavity-filling composite that kills harmful bacteria and regenerates tooth structure lost to bacterial decay. This first-of-a-kind nanocomposite ... > full story -
Novel Radiation Surveillance Technology Could Help Thwart Nuclear Terrorism
May 1, 2012 Researchers have developed a prototype radiation-detection system that uses rare-earth elements and other materials at the nanoscale. The system could be used to enhance radiation-detection devices ... > full story -
Single Nanomaterial Yields Many Laser Colors
April 29, 2012 Engineers have created nanoscale single crystals that can produce the red, green, or blue laser light needed in digital displays. The size determines color, but all the pyramid-shaped quantum dots ... > full story -
Nanotechnology-Related Safety and Ethics Problem Emerging
April 28, 2012 A scientist provides an example of a nanotechnology-related safety and ethics problem that is unfolding right ... > full story -
Golden Potential for Gold Thin Films
April 27, 2012 Researchers have directed the first self-assembly of nanoparticles into multi-layered thin films of gold that are device-ready for potential applications in computer memory storage, energy ... > full story -
Bejeweled: Nanotech Gets Boost from Nanowire Decorations
April 27, 2012 Engineers have found a novel method for "decorating" nanowires with chains of tiny particles to increase their electrical and catalytic performance. The new technique is simpler, faster and more ... > full story -
Anti-Reflective Coatings: Beauty Is in the Moth's Eyes
April 27, 2012 If you wear glasses, you are probably reading this article by looking through a tiny, transparent layer of nanomaterial. Anti-reflective coatings (ARCs), based on nanomaterials that reduce the amount ... > full story -
New Guide for Research on Multiblock Polymers Emerges
April 26, 2012 Thanks to advances in polymer chemistry and a wide variety of monomer constituents to choose from, the world of multiblock polymers is wide open. These polymers can result in an astonishing array of ... > full story -
Liquid Solar Cells Can Be Painted Onto Surfaces
April 25, 2012 Scientists have developed a potential pathway to cheap, stable solar cells made from nanocrystals so small they can exist as a liquid ink and be painted or printed onto clear ... > full story -
First Custom Designed Protein Crystal Created
April 25, 2012 Protein design is technique that is increasingly valuable to a variety of fields, from biochemistry to therapeutics to materials engineering. Chemists have taken this kind of design a step further; ... > full story -
What Is the Best Way of Stacking Apples?
April 25, 2012 When stacking apples on a market stall, fruit sellers “naturally” adopt a particular arrangement: a regular pyramid with a triangular base. Scientists have now demonstrated that this ... > full story -
Creating Nano-Structures from the Bottom Up
April 24, 2012 Microscopic particles are being coaxed by engineers to assemble themselves into larger crystalline structures by the use of varying concentrations of microscopic particles and magnetic ... > full story
