Visions of self-replicating nanomachines that could devour the Earth in a "grey goo" are probably wide of the mark, but "radical nanotechnology" could still deliver great benefits to society. The ...

The environment has been a hot topic throughout the history of nanotechnology, yet despite decades of research, definitive conclusions on the environmental impact of nanoparticles remain elusive. Anna ...

Optomechanics as a branch of physics allows to control the motion of mechanical systems through interaction with light. This successful synergy drove the development and widespread adoption of ...

Machine learning, with its ability to analyze large datasets and identify patterns, is particularly well-suited to address the challenges presented by the vast and complex data generated in ...

Temperature is a measure of heat which arises from the random motion of atoms. As the temperature of any system goes down, the random motion of atoms reduces. They get into an ordered state. When ...

Since Richard Feynman, the physicist and Nobel Prize laureate, also known as the father of modern nanotechnology presented a famous lecture “There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom” at the California ...

Our focused effort is to understand organization of nano-structured materials & nano-scale phenomena (such as interactions between nanoparticles) with the goal of finding novel approaches for optical ...

Nigeria’s nanotechnology journey has been slow. BSIP/Universal Images Group via Getty Images Nanomaterials have special physical, optical, biological, chemical, electrical and mechanical attributes.

Today, a life without nanotechnology is hard to imagine. Nanotechnologies – to be more specific: nanomaterials – are already used in numerous products and industrial applications. Our Nanotechnology ...
