Rebecca Richards-Kortum Wins AIMBE Pierre Galletti Award
Houston, May 6, 2016 — The American Institute for Medical and Biomedical Engineering (AIMBE) presented its highest honor, the 2016 Pierre Galletti Award, to Rice University bioengineer Rebecca Richards-Kortum. Rebecca Richards-Kortum has been awarded the 2016 Pierre...
Open-Source System 3D Prints from Custom Powders
HOUSTON, Feb. 29, 2016 — An open-source laser sintering printer has been used to print intricate 3D objects from powdered plastics and biomaterials. The system costs a fraction of equivalent commercial systems and could give researchers a DIY technique for working with...
Bridging Nanoparticles Creates Reversible Color Change for Displays
HOUSTON, Dec. 7, 2015 — A method for building tiny "drawbridges" could allow engineers to use standard electrical switching techniques to construct color displays from pairs of nanoparticles that scatter different colors of light. The chemical bridges can be created and...
Lensless Camera Thinner than a Dime
HOUSTON, Nov. 30, 2015 — Using a gridlike mask instead of a lens, a camera system thinner than a dime could pave the way for imaging systems embedded in flexible, foldable and even disposable media. FlatCam detects a linear combination of light from multiple scene elements,...
UV Light Powers Nanosubmersible Motors
HOUSTON, Nov. 17, 2015 — Single-molecule machines that move through fluids with UV light-powered motors could someday carry cargo for medical and other applications. Microscopic machines with motors have been developed over the years, said Rice University professor James...
Imaging of Nanoscale Pores Aids Drug Discovery
HOUSTON, Sept. 9, 2015 — Drug discovery efforts may get a boost from a new imaging technique based on superresolution microscopy and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. Called fcsSOFI — for fluorescence correlation spectroscopy superresolution optical fluctuation...
Lockheed, Rice Form 'Lancer'
HOUSTON, April 21, 2008 -- Airport scanners that can see through the soles of shoes, space-based sensors that monitor climate change, and nanomaterials that double battery efficiency or extract energy from waste heat are a few of the technologies that might result from a...
Unidym Forms Bioscience Unit
MENLO PARK, Calif., Mar. 21, 2008 -- Carbon nanotube maker Unidym Inc. announced this week it has formed a spinoff, Ensysce Biosciences Inc., that will focus on research into medical applications of carbon nanotubes. Unidym, a majority-owned subsidiary of Arrowhead Research Corp.,...
Nanotube 'Seeds' Created
HOUSTON, Nov. 17, 2006 -- Chemists today revealed what they said is the first method for cutting carbon nanotubes into "seeds" and using those seeds to sprout new nanotubes. The method may allow them to reproduce their very best nanotube samples for use in a variety of...
Consortium Gets $1.4M to Develop Nanomaterials
HOUSTON, Nov. 6, 2006 -- The Texas-based Consortium for Nanomaterials for Aerospace Commerce and Technology (CONTACT) has received $1.4 million from the US Department of Defense to develop and commercialize new nanomaterials for the defense aerospace industry. CONTACT...
'Nanostars' Could be Powerful Chemical Sensors
HOUSTON, April 20, 2006 -- New optics research from Rice University's Laboratory for Nanophotonics (LANP) suggests that tiny gold particles called nanostars combine some of the best properties of photonic particles like nanorods and quantum dots while also having unique...
Nobel Laureate, "Buckyball" Discoverer Dies
Oct 31, 2005 — HOUSTON, Texas, Oct. 31 -- Nobel laureate Richard Smalley, co-discoverer of the buckyball and widely considered to be one of the fathers of nanotechnology, died Friday at the age of 62 after a long battle with cancer. Rice University professor...
