Carbon nanotubes since their discovery have been put to a variety of uses and have become an important part in the world of nanotechnology. Since it is costly to manufacture nanoparticles on a massive scale therefore Fritz Haber Institute researchers...
A new nanotube knife has been designed by researchers of the University of Colorado which would function in the same manner as that of a tight wire cheese slicer. If it turns out to be successful then it may be found in the hands of scientists studying...
In one of the significant developments in the area of nanotechnology, chemists from Rice University have discovered a technique using which carbon nanotubes can be cut into seeds and used for creating new nanotubes. It is expected that if this...
The sword in the picture might look to you like any normal weapon but believe it or not it is an ancient masterpiece created by a nanotechnology expert of the seventeenth century. What makes this a special sword is that it is a perfect example of...
Now Intel is realizing the importance of nanotechnology and is looking forward to carbon nanotubes as a replacement for copper wires which are used inside semiconductors. The company has performed experiments and created prototype interconnects from...
Now damaged organs can be regenerated using nanotechnology. South Korean and American researchers are testing tiny nanotubes for neuron regeneration in brain damaged rats. In another research, U.S. researchers have successfully tested self assembling...
Chemist at Clemson University, Ya-Ping Sun has come up with method for countering anthrax. If anthrax has to be misused for causing destruction then it should be grounded into a fine powder so that it can easily enter the lungs through inhalation....
In a recent development American scientists have discovered a soap based approach which could be deployed for solving a problem in sorting various kinds of nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes have always been beset by problems as creation of nanotubes always...
Here is an easy to fabricate sensor developed from carbon nanotubes which detects whether automobile engine oil requires replacement or not. In a study conducted at Korea University, Seoul resaechers blended nanotubes with glue and then a thin layer of...
It has been found out that nanotubes help the adult stem cells to morph into neurons in brain damaged rats. These carbon nanotubes which are eighty thousand times thinner as compared to a human hair help in enhancing the ability of adult stem cells in...
Motorola Labs has released a news release with the following headline "Functionalizing Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Peptides Enables Selective Molecule Detection'. The news suggests that Motorola has discovered the method for detecting chemical...
