New research suggests that particle accelerators capable of generating intense, coherent X-rays, which are ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The integration of electronics into clothing promises to transform how we interact with technology, but the fundamental materials have consistently fallen short. Attempts to weave ...

Wonder material the carbon nanotube has another new application: A team at the University of Michigan has worked out how to coat cotton threads with a polymer and nanotube mix to produce conductive ...

Duke researchers are devising new ways to engineer carbon-based semiconductors for electronics of the future DURHAM, N.C. -- It might look like a roll of chicken wire, but this tiny cylinder of carbon ...

Scientists have designed a new type of gas sensor that can tell apart "mirror image" versions of the same smell molecule, ...

Carbon nanotubes, the experimental materials seen as possible replacements for conventional chip-making materials, conduct electricity better than any other material at room temperature, according to ...

Professor Aniebiet Inyang Ntui is a multi-faceted individual whose expertise spans the worlds of library and information science, environmental advocacy, and – perhaps surprisingly – the automotive ...
