Nanotechnology: Giving a New Dimension to Food Industry
INTRODUCTION: A derivative of chemistry, engineering, and physics, and micro falsity techniques, nanotechnology involves manipulating matter at the nanoscale level. It is responsible for determining not only that biological and nonbiological structures measuring less than 100 nm exist but also that they have one-of-a-kind and novel functional applications. In fact, the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI, 2006) defines nanotechnology as “the understanding ... Read More »

Graphene to pave way for development of advanced touch screens
A team of American and Israeli researchers has come up with a new method for the production of bulk quantities of one-atom-thick sheets of carbon called graphene, a development that could yield novel composites and touch-screen displays. The work, by researchers from Rice University and the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, has appeared online in the journal Nature Nanotechnology. When stacked ... Read More »
How butterflies’ wings could cut bank fraud
Cambridge scientists have discovered a way of mimicking the stunningly bright and beautiful colours found on the wings of tropical butterflies. The findings could have important applications in the security printing industry, helping to make bank notes and credit cards harder to forge. The striking iridescent colours displayed on beetles, butterflies and other insects have long fascinated both physicists and ... Read More »
