Photonic devices, crucial in modern technology, manipulate light through films and structures, enhancing functionalities via principles such as interference and resonance.
Sensors are essential tools for detecting and analyzing trace molecules in various fields. However, developing sensors with high enough sensitivity to detect tiny amounts of molecules remains a challenge.
Using a new technology developed at MIT, diagnosing lung cancer could become as easy as inhaling nanoparticle sensors and then taking a urine test that reveals whether a tumor is present.
These “picosprings” have remarkably large and tuneable compliancy and can be controlled remotely through magnetic fields (even deep within the human body) allowing articulated motion in microrobots as well as micromanipulations well beyond the state of the art.
An imaging method for sensitive materials conducted at Argonne National Laboratory reveals previously unseen changes in ice even when the temperatures are well below zero degrees Celsius.
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have created the world’s first functional semiconductor made from graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms held together by the strongest bonds known. The breakthrough throws open the door to a new way of doing electronics. Video summary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWUX2OTqkEo
Monitoring glucose levels is one of the key elements in health monitoring. A research team has now developed a battery-independent fluorescent nanosensor based on single-wall carbon nanotubes and an inactive form of the enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx).
KRISS develops a sensor with advanced materials for monitoring nitrogen dioxide in the atmosphere with the world’s highest sensitivity.
Dr. Kyung Joong Yoon’s research team at the Energy Materials Research Center of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) has developed a nanocatalyst for high-temperature water electrolysis that can retain a high current density of more than 1A/cm2 for a long time at temperatures above 600 degrees.
After extensive prior research spanning more than a decade, scientists have introduced an innovative approach for incorporating gold nanoparticles into tellurite glasses, capitalising on their highly desirable attributes.
With the rise in machine learning applications and artificial intelligence, it's no wonder that more and more scientists and researchers are turning to supercomputers. Supercomputers are commonly used for making predictions with advanced modeling and simulations. This can be applied to climate research, weather forecasting, genomic sequencing, space exploration, aviation engineering and more.
Cancer, a leading cause of death globally, releases TDEs, tiny vesicles containing crucial bioactive components.
Researcher’s honor is awarded to less than 3% of Laboratory’s scientific staff.
The researchers summarized the small-angle scattering, neutron reflection, and neutron diffraction techniques for characterizing the inherent hierarchical microstructures of PBXs.
Researchers at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology developed a microscope that visualizes the invisible forces exerted by light at the nanoscale. This groundbreaking tool reveals the intimate tango between light, force, and temperature with unprecedented detail and speed.
Have you ever wondered how water boils in an electric kettle? Most people may think electricity simply heats up the metal coil inside the kettle, which then transfers the heat to the water. But electricity can do more than that.
CRONT(CRISPR-powered optothermal nanotweezers)：A groundbreaking bio-detection technology has emerged by merging the single-base-specific recognition capability of CRISPR gene editing technology with the precise control for biomolecules of optothermal tweezers.
Soham Saha, a Maria Goeppert Mayer Fellow at Argonne National Laboratory, discusses his work to develop small, adjustable X-ray sources.
Understanding and controlling the molecular switching of a single molecule is fundamental for the development of molecular logic operations and for the further development of nanoscale computation.
A Missouri University of Science and Technology researcher studying chronic artery disease, or atherosclerosis, was recently awarded a patent for a nano-formulation he says could potentially be used as a treatment for the disease.
