Nanotechnology is a science that deals with materials having at least one of its dimensions in nanoscale. At this scale, nanomaterials are not bulky and mostly comprise a surface, which means most of ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Humanity's efforts to modify food plants is as old as farming itself, some 10,000 years. Before genetic engineering became possible, farmers have used simple selection inter- and ...

A NASA engineer has achieved yet another milestone in his quest to advance an emerging super-black nanotechnology that promises to make spacecraft instruments more sensitive without enlarging their ...

Nanoscale science, engineering, and technology, often referred to simply as "nanotechnology," is the understanding, characterization, and control of matter at the scale of nanometers, the dimension of ...

Working at levels as small as a billionth of a metre, researchers on an IAEA project have studied radiation’s effect on nano-architectures – the design and building of nano structures – and identified ...

Nano–soft hybrid materials combine the structural precision of nanotechnology with the adaptability of soft matter such as liquid crystals.

The worlds of science and business are merging and a new breed of scientist, manager and policy maker is emerging. These new professionals are PSM graduates who can serve companies in today's ...

The 2023 Nobel Prize for chemistry isn’t the first Nobel awarded for research in nanotechnology. But it is perhaps the most colorful application of the technology to be associated with the accolade.

These applications extend to soil, air, and water treatment, providing a sustainable approach to environmental management. The fusion of nanotechnology and biodiversity, therefore, addresses key ...
