Silicon nanowires observed with an electron microscope. (Image credit: Roberto Lo Savio/Shutterstock) The ability to produce a nanomaterial with a low thermal transport has gathered a lot of attention recently, particularly within semiconducting nanowires.
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Imagine you are fast asleep in your bedroom when a fire breaks out somewhere else in your house. Fortunately, you have nanotechnology-enhanced wallpaper that detects the fire and automatically rings an alarm. Sounds far-fetched?
This requires working at a nanoscale, creating embedded arrangements of microscopic sensors that could be 2,000 times more sensitive than human skin. The smart core would be inserted between two small nanoscale grids of electrodes, which detect the ...
