ICFO is looking for a highly-motivated post-doctoral researcher to lead a project on plasmon-enhanced-sensitivity quantum dot photodetectors. The researcher is expected to design and fabricate active plasmonic nanostructures intended for photodetection applications.  The ideal researcher should have demonstrated experience in design and fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures and should have hands-on expertise in e-beam nanolithography, FIB and metal deposition techniques. In ... Read More »

(www.Borganic.org) The emerging field of nanotechnology is currently gaining a lot of attention across many industries. Nanotechnology allows scientists to manipulate individual atoms and molecules to create unique materials and even micro-scale devices, and this is leading to a wide range of applications in clothing, textiles, electronics and even food and medicine. Sounds great, right? Except for the fact that, ... Read More »

Nanotechnology may help an old drug — arsenic trioxide — fight aggressive breast cancer, U.S. researchers say. Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago are using mice to test if nanotechnology packaging of a drug long part of Chinese medicine and useful in treating blood cancers can help fight a very aggressive and difficult-to-treat breast cancer prevalent in young women, particularly ...
