Tag: nanotechnologyPractical Nanotube Electronics Researchers develop a new method for making efficient nanotube transistor arrays. Chips that use graphite show promise for storing more bits than flash memory. A rolling nanoimprint lithography stamp could be used to print components for displays and solar cells. Surface-plasmon lasers could enable a new generation of computers based on nanophotonics. A new material could eventually be used to store vast amounts of data on a disc. Carbon nanotubes that respond to visible light might mean better solar cells and artificial retinas. A Better Way to Make Nano Stuff Durable molds could serve as a practical manufacturing tool in making nano devices. First Light-Driven Nanomachine A silicon nanobeam uses optical force to do mechanical work in an integrated circuit. New designs for materials that repel all liquids. Lithography Past Light's Limits A new optical etching technique could lead to faster microchips. Self-propelled microbots navigate through blood vessels. New publications, experiments and breakthroughs in nanotechnology--and what they mean. A new method melts away tiny defects in nanostructures. Copper nanowires could be used in ultra-thin field-emission displays that are brighter and sharper than flat-panel displays. Organic Transistors That Assemble Themselves A simple way to pattern organic semiconductor material could mean cheap, large, bendable electronics. |
