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.
Introduction to nanomachines
Nanomachines are molecular mechanisms which execute a function when receive a stimulus. Today’s subject is an introduction with examples.
Graphene: Properties and applications
This post’s topic is graphene. It is one of carbon’s allotropic forms and promises to cause a technological revolution due to it’s properties.
Colloidal nanotweezer, a new tool for particle manipulation
Was created a colloidal nanotweezer to capture and manipulate nanoparticles.
