Nanotubes Go Beyond Carbon
ATLANTA, Aug. 29, 2007 -- A new class of metal oxide-based tubular nanomaterials that can be produced in water also offer a high degree of control over their diameter and length, unlike carbon nanotubes. The new single-walled inorganic nanotubes are being developed for a...
Nanogenerator Converts Tiny Movements to Electric Current
ATLANTA, April 6, 2007 -- A prototype nanometer-scale generator -- an array of tiny filaments that converts the smallest motions into electrical current -- could free nanomachines from the bulk of batteries by harvesting mechanical energy from such environmental sources as...
Cheaper Desalination Method Found in Nanotubes
LIVERMORE, Calif., May 22, 2006 -- A nanotube membrane created on a silicon chip the size of a quarter may offer a cheaper way to remove salt from water, said the researchers who created it at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). The nanotubes, special molecules made of...
Spectroscopy Improves Nanotube Growth
Mar 1, 2006 — Better displays may be on the way, thanks to work on carbon nanotube growth by researchers at Kyung Hee University in Seoul, South Korea. Using optical emission spectroscopy, the scientists have found the optimum conditions for the growth of...
Nano Conference to Mark AFM, STM Invention
Feb 20, 2006 — BASEL, Switzerland, Feb. 20, 2006 -- The International Conference on Nanoscience and Technology (ICN&T), to be held in Basel July 30-Aug. 4, will commemorate the invention and development of scanning probe microscopy instruments by marking 25...
Nanotubes Make Materials Absorb Vibration
Feb 13, 2006 — TROY, N.Y., Feb. 13, 2006 -- A new study by researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) suggests that integrating nanotubes into traditional materials dramatically improves their ability to reduce vibration, especially at high...
NIST Polynanotubes Could Become World's Smallest Hypodermic Needles
Feb 3, 2006 — GAITHERSBURG, Md., Feb. 3, 2006 -- Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have created unusually long polymer nanotubes that could one day be used as incredibly tiny hypodermic needles, capable of injecting molecules...
2005 European Research Awards Announced
Jan 1, 2006 — Twenty-five winners of the 2005 European Young Investigator awards received diplomas in recognition of their project proposals at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in Budapest on Nov. 9. Each will receive up to €1.25 million over five years. Offered...
Unipolar Nanotube Devices Emit in the Near-IR
Jan 1, 2006 — Scientists at IBM’s Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., and at Duke University in Durham, N.C., have fabricated field-effect transistors based on partially suspended carbon nanotubes that generate near-infrared radiation. The...
Carbon Nanotube Project Gets Funding
Dec 12, 2005 — NEW YORK, Dec. 12 -- Advance Nanotech Inc., a provider of financing and other services to support the commercialization of nanotechnology, today announced financing for epi-CNT, a new research project based out of the Center for Advanced Photonics...
Researchers Combine Tiny Nanotubes, Antibodies to Detect Cancer Cells
Dec 7, 2005 — PHILADELPHIA and NEWARK, Del., Dec. 7 -- By coating the surfaces of tiny carbon nanotubes with monoclonal antibodies, biochemists and engineers at Jefferson Medical College and the University of Delaware can detect cancer cells in a tiny drop of...
Nanotech Risks Not Studied, Researchers Say
Dec 6, 2005 — WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 -- Governments aren't spending enough money to investigate the possible health, environmental and safety impacts of long-term exposure to nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and nanopowders during government-funded research...

News Briefs
Nov 8, 2005 — Nanotechnology company Arrowhead Research Corp. of Pasadena, Calif., is working with Duke University in Durham, N.C., and Duke professor and nanotube expert Jie Liu to develop nanotube-based interconnects as a replacement for copper in computer...
Longest Nanotubes Conduct Electricity
Oct 18, 2004 — IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 18 -- The University of California at Irvine (UCI) announced today that scientists at its school of engineering have synthesized the world's longest electrically conducting nanotubes. These 0.4 cm nanotubes are 10 times longer...
After 'Abysmally Failed' Experiment, Carbon Nanotubes Grow Wings
Jul 29, 2004 — ARGONNE, Ill., July 29 -- Diamonds are the hardest known substance. Carbon nanotubes are the strongest. Scientists at the US Dept. of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory tried to combine the best of both worlds by creating a composite...
Eikos to Develop Aircraft Canopy Nanotubes
May 5, 2004 — FRANKLIN, Mass., May 5 -- Eikos Inc., a developer and licenser of transparent carbon nanotube inks for conductive coatings and circuits, has been awarded an $860,000 contract from the Air Force Research Laboratory to develop transparent conductive...
Controlling the Shape of Nanotube Structures
Mar 25, 2004 — TROY, N.Y., March 25 -- Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) are reporting the discovery of a simple method for rapidly creating different shapes of carbon nanotube structures. To produce the minuscule structures on a commercial...
