Scientists have developed a new nanoscale building technique that could help create exclusive anti-counterfeiting and chemical sensing tools, which can be used with the human eyes. Heyou Zhang and collaborator Calum Kinnear working in the NanoScience ...
(Nanowerk News) “We found a completely new way to control the conductivity of materials at nanoscale,” says Professor Dennis Meier at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's (NTNU) Department of Materials Science and Engineering.
Two atomically thin carbon sheets stacked on top of each other, called bilayer graphene, exhibit unique properties when one of the layers is twisted at a certain angle—a "magic" angle. The study of magic and other angle misalignments between two layers of material and their effects on material properties has been dubbed twistronics,
Bio-compatible electrostrictive materials will play a leading role in the future generation of medical micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). In the science fiction film Back to the Future Part ...
