With new, advanced equipment, scientists at Risø DTU have shown that materials to produce micro-and nanocomponents react very differently depending on whether crystals are large or small. This research creates important knowledge that can be used to develop technologies aimed at the nanoproduction of micro-electro-mechanical systems such as digital microphones in mobile phones, miniature pressure sensors in water pumps and acceleration sensors in airbags.
QD Vision, Inc., developer of Quantum Light™ nanotechnology-based products for solid state lighting and displays, announced today that DTE Energy Ventures has invested $3 million in the company. The funding will support QD Vision’s market expansion of quantum dot-based nanomaterials that enable major efficiency gains in high-quality solid-state lighting and flat panel displays.
The industrial and research role of sensors and associated instrumentation technologies has never been greater. However, industry demands are increasingly stringent and sophisticated, requiring innovative development of sensor technology. Nanotechnology can drive the advances needed to achieve these market demands. Novel tools, techniques and materials mean that the next generation of sensors will be smaller, have increased sensitivity, require specific functions, and consume less power.
Otaniemi is now home to the national Nanomicroscopy Center, one of the largest of its kind in Europe
Global market trends, with sales data for 2008, estimates for 2009, and projections for 5-year compound annual growth rates through 2014
Using a technique that provides detailed images of nanoscale structures, researchers at the University of Michigan and Detroit's Henry Ford Hospital have discovered changes in the collagen component of bone that directly relate to bone health.
A new application note, freely available on the Malvern Instruments’ website, describes how the new ZEN1010 high concentration zeta potential cell for the company’s market-leading Zetasizer Nano particle characterization system, overcomes a major hurdle in measuring the zeta potential of high concentration samples. Taking the notoriously difficult to measure titanium dioxide as an example, the authors describe experimental work that demonstrates accurate and reliable zeta potential measurement of concentrated, turbid suspensions.
GSI Technologies, LLC, a global ISO 9001:2000-certified printing technology company specializing in printed electronics, sensors, electrodes, lamps and displays, announces the development of a fully printed numeric display based on NTERA's NanoChromics technology that is fully compatible with industry standard hot lamination plastic card manufacturing. Segmented, numeric displays that are hot lamination compatible are the ideal solution for the emerging powered smart card market, where they are being adopted for two factor authentication solutions such as one-time passcodes, financial credit/debit cards, transportation cards and other stored value cards.
If you're watching the complex processes in a living cell, it is easy to miss something important—especially if you are watching changes that take a long time to unfold and require high-spatial-resolution imaging
