3D priting of nanostructures
New materials can be 3D printed, to create many nanostructures and improve materials’ resistance without increasing weight.
Carbon nanotubes: what are they?
The carbon nanotubes are another carbon allotropic form, they have many interesting properties and promise many applications.
New microbot in cancer treatment
Was develop a microbot in the shape of fish, which can send medicines directly to cancer cells.
Robotic chameleon changes color
Was built a robotic chameleon that changes color accoding to the environment.
Photoinduced force microscope
For the first time, atoms were observed with a new type of microscope, which uses a photoinduced force to observe atomic nanometric structures.
Superhard metals with nanoparticles
Researchers managed to build metals with much more hardness than the natural equivalents, using nanoparticles as construction blocks.
Organic membranes for water desalinization
High-efficiency polyamide membranes can be used in water desalinization, thanks to the homogenous internal structure.
Memristor and memristence
This post’s subject is the memristor, the fourth fundamental passive electronic component, alongside resistor, capacitor, and coil.
Graphene oxide and the reduced form
Graphene is still too expensive and difficult to make on large scale. While graphene oxide is a graphite derivate, which is cheaper and easier to manufacture.
