Nanovip All things Nanotechnology – Nano Is The Futiure

The State University of New York (SUNY), in partnership with The Research Foundation of SUNY and SUNY campuses statewide, has launched five regional “Technology Transfer” hubs across the SUNY research enterprise as part of a novel effort to spur new high-tech business opportunities and stimulate economic growth across New York State. The move is in direct alignment with the SUNY ... Read More »

If there truly is a form of research that can be called cutting edge, it’s nanotechnology. It’s mainly still in the research end of development, but the applications are starting to appear as you read this. With the capability of changing everything from space research to fighting cancer, now is the time to enter this form of engineering. This revolutionary ... Read More »

Although nanotechnology has significant impact in all felids of life. it has impressive applications in almost every area of work but it also has some major disadvantages that cannot be neglected. Nanotechnology negative side is quite bright some of its disadvantages are listed below: One of the biggest disadvantage that world is facing because of nanotechnology is the lack of ... Read More »

Courtesy of Charles Lieber A new device, small enough to be used for sensitive probing of the interior of cells, has been developed by Harvard chemists and engineers. Pictured is the delivery of a two-terminal nanoscale electronic sensor into single cells. Chemists and engineers at Harvard University have fashioned nanowires into a new type of V-shaped transistor small enough to ... Read More »

Aug 12, 2010 (The Hartford Courant – McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) — The tiny crevices of butterfly wings are the ideal design for nanotechnology that could make subway stations safer, according to scientists at Fairfield-based General Electric Co. Three years ago, GE scientists learned that scales on butterflies wings have little nooks aligned in a manner that is perfect ... Read More »

When someone says “nanotechnology” to me, I get very Star Trekkie. My ears begin to taper elvishly. My eyebrows arch inquisitively. I embrace a peculiar affection for sticking my head into an upturned bowl. I develop a fondness for soaring arias and cavorting with semi-clad women of an arable hue. But I have been corrupted by an unnatural relationship with ... Read More »

AUSTIN, Texas—Conventional solar cell efficiency could be increased from the current limit of 30 percent to more than 60 percent, suggests new research on semiconductor nanocrystals, or quantum dots, led by chemist Xiaoyang Zhu at The University of Texas at Austin.
