EU researchers extensively characterised the self-organisation of nanotubes and developed novel compositions particularly appropriate to solar energy conversion applications. Self-organized one-dimensional (1D) oxide nanotube systems are a hot ...  

Single molecule detection will facilitate the early detection of disease such as cancer, so as to facilitate earlier treatment. "Sensitivity of detection is a major challenge in the diagnosis of many diseases. Our next step is to find one ...  

The ability to detect a single chemical at extremely low concentrations and high contamination is vital for earlier disease diagnosis. Now, researchers have discovered a new method to accurately do just this. The researchers, who conducted the ...  

As defined above, nanophotonics are closely related to nano-optoelectronics. Many photonic devices, such as diodes, are also commonly classified as optoelectronic devices. This study does not exclude any application that meets the basic ...  

But recent advances in sequencing technology holds promise of rapid increase in speed of sequencing at the rate of 6 ... This change in current translates to a reading of each nucleotide base. Nanopores have progressed from protein base to ...  

Researchers at Purdue University are working with the U.S. Army and neurosurgeons at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center to create a new type of "bioactive" coating for stents used to treat brain aneurisms including those caused by head trauma from bomb blasts. "Stents coated with a bioactive coating might be inserted at the site of an aneurism to help heal the inside lining of the blood vessel," said Jean Paul Allain, an...
