NANOTEC recently organized a NANO Talk on “Printed Intelligence” to provide information on the role of printed intelligence to the enhancement of paper and board products. The application of printed intelligence includes such areas as hybrid media, smart and active packaging, security devices, disposable sensors, diagnostic devices, and functional wallpapers. The commercial aspects of printed […]
Dr. Kajornsak showing the chemisorption analyzer machine to Prof. Parimal during the lab visit. On 3 Nov NANOTEC hosted the visit of Prof. Parimal A. Parikh from Chemical Engineering Department, National Institute of Technology, Surat, India. Prof. Parimal is currently in Bangkok and is a visiting professor at AIT Nanotechnology Center. His expertise lies […]
Dr. Phikunthong Kopermsub from the NanoDelivery Lab received the Australian Government Endeavour Award from H.E. Paul Grigson, Australian Ambassador to Thailand on January 21 in Bangkok. She is doing her fellowship at Flinders University. Each year the Endeavour Awards bring high achieving students, researchers and professionals from around the world to Australia for study, research […]
Dr. Uracha Ruktanonchai, National Nanotechnology Center (NANOTEC) was awarded the Young Scientist Award 2010 on August 9, 2010. She received the award from HRH Princess Maha Chakri at a Royal Ceremony in Bangkok. Recipient of the Young Scientist Award will each receive a cash award of Baht 100,000 (USD 3,000) and a certificate.
Extracting drinking water from the sea to prepare for a world parched by climate change, and re-imagining aeroplane and ship hull designs for the best fuel efficiency, are two of the visionary applications of a new £2.4 million research project announced today (Friday 15 October) at the University. Professor Jason Reese of the University’s Faculty […]
(Nanowerk News) The National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS) is introducing new administrative processes for the notification and assessment of industrial nanomaterials that are considered to be New Chemicals under Part 3 (Notification and Assessment of Industrial Chemicals) of the Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Act 1989 (the Act). These new administrative arrangements […]
Dos países de América Latina destacan entre un grupo de cinco naciones en desarrollo donde se están haciendo avances en nanotecnología. Mientras en Brasil hay una incipiente pero creciente relación industria-academia, en México aún falta establecer una red nacional articulada. Así lo indica un informe sobre capacidad de innovación y sistemas de innovación en energías […]
Ultra-thin TiO2 nanotubes with controllable parameters (diameter and length) can be fabricated under high field anodization, leading to high-speed film growth. In addition, an annealing process can be used to obtain a monodisperse and double-pass TiO2 nanotubular layer with a gradient pore diameter and ultrathin tube wall. The approach is simple and cost-effective and the […]
Researchers at Tokyo Institute of Technology and the University of Tokyo have provided a proof-of-concept demonstration of the world’s first “single-molecule level separation and correction” of biomolecules. Single-molecule sorting into left, right and middle channels Separation and separation-based analysis of molecules are fundamentally important techniques in chemistry, biotechnology, etc. With these techniques, though, issues concerning […]
The 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded jointly to Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov “for groundbreaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene”. Both physicists work at the University of Manchester in the UK. Andre Geim In a telephone interview with Swedish journalists minutes after the announcement, Geim said that he was answering e-mails […]
Researchers in Switzerland have demonstrated an innovative way of trapping tiny objects using electrostatic fields. The device could allow scientists to scrutinize much smaller biological molecules than is possible with the more established trapping technique known as “optical tweezers”. The mechanism underpinning electrostatic tweezers The ability to hold individual molecules in fixed positions can allow […]
Researchers at Stanford University in the US have shown that they can permanently alter the electronic properties of carbon nanotube network transistors by contacting a self-assembled monolayer to the devices. The technique is a new way to tune the behaviour of integrated nanotube films and could ultimately lead to better and more reliable device operation. […]
Researchers in the US are the first to use epitaxy to make nanometre-sized single crystals. Epitaxy is a standard process used in semiconductor fabrication and therefore the breakthrough could lead to the production of nanostructured thin films for a wide variety of applications, including solar cells. How to grow single-crystal nanopillars Most nanostructures made from […]
Northwestern University researchers have made a new type of diffractive microlens based on 2D arrays of circular nanoholes. The new lenses can focus light of all colours in the visible spectrum and broadband white light too. The devices are much easier to make than conventional diffractive and “plasmonic” lenses and can be fabricated in their […]
Heat can be conducted across a nanometre-sized vacuum gap – something that was deemed impossible until now. So say researchers at the Air Force Research Laboratory in Ohio who have found that the heat is transferred via an effect called “phonon tunnelling” in which quantized molecular vibrations, called phonons, appear to traverse the forbidden zone. […]
Abstract: With new properties come new issues. This is what makes “nano” interesting in various fields of technologies. When they are used in these new ways, safety of nanomaterials has raised serious concerns.
Alan Shalleck President NanoClarity LLC Abstract: Profitable commercialization of nanotechnology world wide is finally happening, and few of you are acting within this sea change with your own accelerated commercial push. Nor is the funding industry recognizing the nanotech “industry” evolution by adding megadollars for production to the still available stimulus funding. Wake up. You’ve […]
