(Nanowerk News) Forum participants described nanomanufacturing as an emerging set of developments that will become a global megatrend: a technological revolution that is now in its formative phases ...

More than a decade ago, theorists predicted the possibility of a nanolens—a chain of three nanoscale spheres that would focus incoming light into a spot much smaller than possible with conventional ...

DRYDEN, NY (WBNG) -- A new program at Tompkins Cortland Community College gives a specific section of the population the chance to pursue a career in nanotechnology. “It really is training the next ...

MISSOULA, Mont. — Researchers at Montana Technological University have announced that they will patent a novel manufacturing technology that could have applications to a number of industries. A new ...

DNA origami: NIST researchers made three DNA origami templates designed so that quantum dots would arrange themselves: (a in the corners, b) diagonally (three dots), and (c in a line (four dots). The ...

Design and nanomanufacturing have collided inside of a Northwestern University laboratory. An interdisciplinary team of researchers has used mathematics and machine learning to design an optimal ...

Researchers have taken an important step toward high-volume production of new nanometer-scale structures with the first systematic study of growth conditions that affect production of one-dimensional ...

Scientists have developed dense arrays of microscopic cones that harness electrostatic forces to eject streams of ions. The technology has a range of promising applications: depositing or etching ...

When biomedical researchers need to test their latest ideas, they often turn to engineered human tissue that mimics the responses in our own bodies. It's become an important intermediary step before ...

IBM says it has developed a silicon carbide tip for nanomanufacturing applications that it claims is a thousand times more wear-resistant than current tool bits and 100,000 times smaller than a pencil ...

Engineers have been developing nanotechnology that could put tiny sensors in just about any material imaginable. Some of these sensors could be woven into clothing to save soldiers from chemical ...
