Researchers in Ireland have fabricated printed transistors consisting entirely of 2-dimensional nanomaterials for the first time. This breakthrough could unlock the potential for numerous applications
Printing of metal structures with complex 3D architectures will have a variety of uses from batteries to biological scaffolds.
Scientists at National University of Singapore have created a transparent smog-filtering window screen.
The use of nanotechnology in medical procedures may just be a few short years away, according to new research.
Nanoengineers have 3-D printed a lifelike, functional blood vessel network that could pave the way toward artificial organs and regenerative therapies.
Nontoxic nanoparticles make rewritable paper that can be printed and erased more than 80 times.
Researchers have made the world's smallest radio receiver - built out of an assembly of atomic-scale defects in pink diamonds.
Methane is many times more potent than carbon dioxide, but it's also more difficult to capture.
MIT researchers discover astonishing behavior of water confined in carbon nanotubes.
For centuries, scientists believed that light couldn't be focused down smaller than its wavelength. Now, researchers have created the world's smallest magnifying glass, which focuses light a billion times more tightly, down to the scale of single atoms.
After sensing dangerous chemicals, the carbon-nanotube-enhanced plants send an alert.
A new type of nanodevice for computer microprocessors is being developed that can mimic the functioning of a biological synapse -- the place where a signal passes from one nerve cell to another in the body.
An intricately sculpted device is so tiny it can only be seen under a microscope. But their diamond microdisk could lead to huge advances in computing, telecommunications, and other fields.
Carbon nanotubes are one of the most conductive materials ever discovered. Now, for the first time ever, scientists made a transistor using carbon nanotubes that beats silicon.
Berkeley Lab researchers are using the science of the very small to help solve big challenges. Here are five projects, now underway which promise big results from the smallest of building blocks.
