Nominations for the third Polymer International – IUPAC Award, celebrating the achievements of young researchers in the polymer community, will close on October the 31st.
Waterproof your Walkman – Superhydrophobic ZnO Device Components
The development of nanostructured ZnO components for devices could lead to inherently waterproof electronic devices.
Nanoprinting on Patterned Surfaces
Nanosized features can easily be printed accurately onto an already patterned surface, using a new technique called nanoimprinting by melt processing.
Any Shape, Any Substrate Ferroelectric Materials
A new method of making ferroelectrics that uses a heated probe tip means they can be produced directly on virtually any substrate and in any shape.
The Power of Nuclear: Testing Irradiated Materials on the Nanoscale
A new method for testing irradiated materials on the nanoscale could reduce the risk of a repeat of the recent events in Fukushima
Teaching a New Dog, Old Tricks: Inorganic Devices Mimicking Biological Synapses
Biological synaptic behaviour related to short- and long-term memory creation is mimicked by inorganic devices.
Small but Powerful: Thin-Film Transistors
Very small organic thin-film transistors with high operating frequencies have been produced by Japanese and German scientists.
Organic Electronics: What Lies Beneath
A comprehensive study of plastic substrates can help you choose the right one for your device.
Powering the Planet with Energy Nanomaterials?
How can nanomaterials make a difference in the grand challenge: efficient and green global scale production, storage and use of energy? Professor Geoffrey Ozin from the University of Toronto gives his response to this question.
