NIST demos industrial-grade nanowire device fabrication

  • The technique, they say, should allow industrial-scale production of nanowire-based devices.

MIT develops 'tractor beam' for cells, more

  • MIT researchers have found a way to use a “tractor beam” of light to pick up, hold, and move around individual cells and other objects on the surface of a microchip
  • neurons communicate by depositing them on microchips where electrical circuits etched into the chips monitor their electrical behavior. �They randomly put cells down on a surface, and hope one lands on [or near] a [sensor] so its activity can be measured. With [our technology], you can put the cell right down next to the sensors.� Not only can motions be precisely controlled with the de

Laptop And Digital Camera Memory Devices Improved With Nanotechnology

  • Most memory today stores information as charge; in the binary language of computers, this means that an abundance of charge at a particular site on a chip translated as a "one," and a lack of charge is translated as a "zero." The problem with such memory is that the smaller its physical size, the less charge it can reliably store.
  • Resistance-based memory, on the other hand, does not suffer from this problem and can even store multiple bits on one site. Moreover, once the resistance is set, it does not change, even when the power is switched off.

And you thought the iPod nano was small - here comes nanotechnology radio

  • utilizes a signal generator to create a 1 GHz RF signal that is externally amplitude modulated with music by an IPod and fed to a dipole antenna for wireless broadcast

Terabyte Thumb Drives Made Possible by Nanotech Memory

  • Instead of storing bits as an electronic charge, the technology creates nanowires from copper atoms the size of a virus to record binary ones and zeros.

Bangkok's Independent Newspaper

  • nanotechnology will assist officials to see and get the remaining print from the scene.

Nanotech will replace disk drives in 10 years, researcher says

  • Nanotechnology will replace magnetic disk drives in iPods, laptops and servers within five to 10 years, making them more durable, lighter and faster.
