Nanovip All things Nanotechnology – Nano Is The Futiure

The smallest electric engine in the world, made of a single molecule was created by researchers at Tufts University in Massachusetts.   The engine, created from a single molecule has a size equivalent to one billionth of a meter, according to the study being published in the Nature Nanotechnology magazine, informs bbc.co.uk. Tiny engines can have various applications in both ... Read More »

While the debate over genetically modified organisms has sometimes become absurd, there are important lessons to be learnt from the whole process. Barely a year ago, terms such as biosafety, GMO or transgenics, used to describe these technologies, were a preserve of a small elite group of scientists and lobbyists. However, today, these are to be heard in public meetings ... Read More »

Researchers have created the smallest electric motor ever devised. The motor, made from a single molecule just a billionth of a metre across, is reported in Nature Nanotechnology. The minuscule motor could have applications in both nanotechnology and in medicine, where tiny amounts of work can be put to efficient use. Tiny rotors based on single molecules have been shown ...
