Nanowires are the New Glass Prisms

The wonders of ultra miniaturized nanowires that directly produces images of single cells without the use of microscopes.

Research Team Creates Artificial Chameleon Skin

The nanoparticles enclosed in polymer shells reacted to heat and light to change colors. By now, we have seen how technology is inspired by the natural world in so many ways.

Engineer Discovers a Way to Convert Wasted Heat into Energy

Battery life could potentially be improved by 50 percent using this technology. At the University of Utah, a mechanical engineer named Mathieu Francoeur has found a slight technicality when it comes to a principle that allows wasted heat to be recycled into usable electricity.

Scientists Produce Better Nanogenerators

Study reveals better stretchability for new nanogenerator Collaborators from Nanyang Technology University and Singapore-Hu Alliance for Research and Enterprise (SHARE) have developed a 3-printed triboelectric nanogenerator with a new stretchability record.

Nanocoating Prevents Greasy Smears

Not only are fingerprints on shiny stainless-steel surfaces unattractive, but they also attack the surface. A new nanocoating that is being developed by Fraunhofer researchers will prevent the smudges that result from a finger touching stainless steel surfaces. The key to their approach is a special nanoparticle that is added to the coating.
