Medicine & TechnologyScientists have developed materials for next-gen electronics to display fine details like colors, even with the use of powerful optical microscopes.
Introducing the coffee ring effect phenomenon, researchers recently showed in a study that quantum dots or QDs which are described as nanosized semiconducting crystals can be arranged using a new method.
Scientists are using nanoparticles in killing harmful bacteria that cause melioidosis that kills thousands of people every year as existing antibiotics do not often work against it.
A team of researchers co-led by the City University of Hong Kong and German scholars identified the quantum confinement effect in a photocatalyst of a 3D-ordered macroporous construction.
In a study, researchers revealed the universal stabilization mechanism of a single-standing molecule, which can be employed in the rational design and building of three-dimensional molecular devices at surfaces.
Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a microscopic robot that uses tiny hairs to propel itself and move through the stomach to deliver medication to diseased cells.
Fluorescent dots, small particles that can produce light, might have a swarm of promising biomedical employments, from helping clinical practitioners to better determine tumor margins to the delivery of drugs deep in the body.
Researchers in Aca Applied Nano Materials recently showed an indicator that's changing color when exposed to increasing alkaline phosphatase levels, an enzyme that predicts the exponential growth of phytoplankton.
Harvard University researchers have recently manipulated the underlying structure of a single material to make a hydrogel characterized as both tough and stretchy.
