Read moreAktuelle Forschungsergebnisse machen deutlich: Nanomaterialien sind nicht allein aufgrund ihrer Kleinheit generell gef�hrlicher als gr�ber strukturierte Materialien. Dies zeigten Ergebnisse der Risikoforschung des Bundesministeriums f�r Bildung und Forschung, die im Technologiegespr�ch 'Sicherer Umgang mit Nanomaterialien' in Berlin vorgestellt wurden.

Read moreScientists are working on a heat engine that consists of just a single ion. Such a nano-heat engine could be far more efficient than, for example, a car engine or a coal-fired power plant.
Feb 3rd, 2014
Read moreResearchers designed a system comprising upconversion nanoparticles that can be excited with near-infrared (NIR) light, which does not result in background fluorescence.

Read moreA Loughborough University research team has won research funding from the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) to examine the health and safety considerations of nanotechnology.
Feb 2nd, 2014
Read moreResearchers have developed a template-free synthesis for hollow and yolk-shell iron oxide nanoparticles sandwiched between few-layer graphene sheets. The material's properties were evaluated as negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries.

Read moreResearchers have used Bragg projection ptychography, or BPP, for imaging local polarization in ferroelectric thin films.
Jan 31st, 2014
Read moreSilver is used increasingly often as a bacterial agent in clothing and hygiene products, but there are conflicting opinions as to its effects on people and the environment. According to researchers at Chalmers and Gothenburg University, the use of environmental assessment methods could clarify the points of this debate.
Jan 31st, 2014
Read moreA new X-ray method will enable the development of more efficient catalysts. The method opens up new opportunities to work on atomic level in a number of areas of materials science. Researchers from Lund University are among those behind the new method.
