| Precision growth of light-emitting nanowires Posted: 06 Feb 2015 08:17 AM PST A novel approach to growing nanowires promises a new means of control over their light-emitting and electronic properties. Researchers demonstrated a new growth technique that uses specially engineered catalysts. These catalysts have given scientists more options than ever in turning the color of light-emitting nanowires.  |
| Nanoscale solution to big problem of overheating in microelectronic devices Posted: 06 Feb 2015 08:17 AM PST Currently, microelectronic device manufacturers must rely on simulations alone to understand the temperatures inside individual devices. Researchers have now developed a way to determine actual temperatures within these devices by using material within them as its own thermometer.  |
| Nano-hydrogels that attack cancer cells Posted: 05 Feb 2015 11:11 AM PST Hydrogels are materials that are commonly used in everyday objects such as contact lenses or diapers, in order to control humidity. However, chemical engineers have now developed a new technology based on thermosensitive nanoparticles (nano-hydrogels) to use these materials in the field of biomedicine, as an alternative to achieve controlled release of anticancer drugs.  |
