A carbon nanotube (Photo credit: ghutchis) The term “nanotechnology” has been bandied about so much over the last few decades that even the researcher who popularized the term is the first to point out that it’s lost its original meaning. Nanotech, or the manipulation of matter on atomic and molecular scales, is currently used to describe micro-scale technology in everything ... Read More »

Scientists at the University of Groningen and the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Germany have succeeded in making smooth ferroelectric delta-PVDF thin films for the first time. The material is ideal for data storage and plastic electronics applications because it has a bistable remanent polarization that can be repeatedly switched by an electric field. “PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) is ...

  Now is the right time for LENR to emerge as a cutting edge nano-technology application that can be supported by an upcoming robust research and development nano-toolset. Unfortunately, cold fusion has arrived decades too early when science and its practitioners were not ready or disposed to either explain or understand such a complex nano-process. LENR has to dig itself ... Read More »

Report says draft proposal would make Nanoscale school an independent campus University at Albany College of Nanoscale Science & Engineering (CNSE) Nano Tech Complex. (Times Union Archives ALBANY — The state has drafted plans to make the $14 billion University at Albany’s College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering its own campus, with CEO Alain ... Read More »

 STMicroelectronics is leading the EU Lab4MEMS ENIAC project to develop a pilot line for next-generation MEMS devices augmented with advanced technologies such as piezoelectric or magnetic materials and 3D packaging. The project was launched by the European Nanoelectronics Initiative Advisory Council (ENIAC) Joint Undertaking (JU), a public-private partnership in nanoelectronics. In coordinating the EUR 28m, 30-month Lab4MEMS project, ST is ... Read More »
