Isolated metal plug process for use in fabricating carbon nanotube memory cells
The present invention is directed to structures and methods of fabricating electromechanical memory cells having nanotube crossbar elements. Such memory cells include a substrate having transistor with a contact that electrically contacts with the transistor. A first support layer is formed over the substrate with an opening that defines a lower chamber above the electrical contact. A nanotube crossbar element ... Read More »
Nanotechnology Courts Profits by Cutting Energy Costs
Adoption of six nanotech innovations for energy efficiency has the same impact on fossil fuel consumption as shutting down every U.S. coal plant, says Lux Research. The increasing consumption and diminishing reserves of fossil fuels will create significant issues for civilization, but energy efficiency can help mitigate the challenge – and advances in nanotechnology have a role to play. Adoption ... Read More »
Russian nanotechnology in the global spotlight
At the international Nanotechnology forum underway in Moscow, Business RT spoke with I will try Claude R. Canizares from Massachusetts Institute of Technology about Russian technology. RT: How excited are you about the things that you see here? CC: “Well, this is a really impressive display, I must say, more so than I expected when I came here. The scale ... Read More »
