For swarming patterns: A model system for the group behavior of nanomachines For a human observer insects is the orderly and seemingly choreographed movement of hundreds or even thousands of fish, birds and fascinating. Formation and movement of such diverse, the swarms are st...
Silicon oxide circuits break barrier: Nanocrystal conductors lead to massive robust 3-D storageRice University scientists have created the first two-terminal memory chips that use only silicon, one of the most common substances on the planet, in a way that should be easily adaptable to nanoelec...
A versatile, clean and efficient way to enhance widespread application of carbon nanotubes Researchers at Imperial College London have developed a versatile, practical and efficient method for activating sites on the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and subsequently binding a wide range o...
MIT researchers unveil autonomous oil-absorbing robotUsing a cutting edge nanotechnology, researchers at MIT have created a robotic prototype that could autonomously navigate the surface of the ocean to collect surface oil and process it on site. The sy...
Good Vibrations: new atom-scale products on horizonThe generation of an electric field by the compression and expansion of solid materials is known as the piezoelectric effect, and it has a wide range of applications ranging from everyday items such a...
