- Nanoscale microscope on a chip
- New Scientist recently reported that a UK company is developing a microscope on a chip four times more powerful than the best scanning electron microscopes SEMs available today. The best SEMs have a resolution of 0.05 nanometer. This new one, which will be small enough to fit onto a fingertip,...

- 3-D images of a virus at half-nanometer resolution
- U.S. researchers have used a new technique named cryo-EM (short for 'Electron cryomicroscopy) to capture images of a virus at a resolution of 4.5 angstroms -- less than half of a nanometer. As said the lead researcher, 'This is the highest resolution ever achieved for a living organism of this...

- Electricity generated by bacteria?
- It will take years before bacteria can generate enough energy to generate electricity for transportation, homes or businesses, but researchers at the University of Minnesota studying bacteria have found a way to convert waste into electricity. They've discovered that riboflavin (also known as vitamin B-2) is responsible for much of...

- Taking images of individual atoms in color
- Researchers at Cornell University are using a new kind of scanning transmission electron microscope STEM to take pictures of individual atoms in color for the first time. It seems odd, but 'the current generation of electron microscopes can be thought of as expensive black and white cameras where different atoms...

- A light-powered toothbrush?
- Would you like to use a light-powered toothbrush which needs no toothpaste and no batteries? It's already available in Japan and North America and it costs about $30. Its rod contains titanium dioxide that generates a plaque-removing electrochemical reaction. This 'solar' toothbrush of the future 'works by releasing electrons that...

- A one-atom thick billiard table
- A team of physicists at the University of California at Riverside UCR have found that graphene, which was isolated experimentally only less than three years ago, and which is a one-atom thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in hexagonal rings, can act as an atomic-scale billiard table. They found that...

- Attosecond X-ray light pulses
- Before going further, do you know what is an attosecond? It's 10-18 second or just a billionth of a billionth of a second. And German researchers have showed that a 'flash of light can be shorter than the time it takes the wave carrying the flash to perform a full...

- Diamond-based quantum computing
- Quantum computing is usually associated with extremely low temperatures. Now, physicists at Harvard University have shown that diamonds can be used to create stable quantum computing building blocks at room temperature. A nitrogen vacancy in diamond could lead to quantum registers able to store or retrieve data. One of the...

- The birth of spinplasmonics
- You might have heard of spintronics, a technology that uses the magnetic quantum properties of the spin of electrons, or plasmonics, another one which 'involves the transfer of light electromagnetic energy into a tiny volume, thus creating intense electric fields.' Now, researchers at the University of Alberta U of A...

- Nanowire photodetectors
- According to researchers at the University of California at San Diego UCSD, semiconducting nanowires can be used to build perfect light detectors with single-photon sensitivity. The zinc oxide ZnO nanowires theyve used are ideally suited to develop "new photodetector architectures for sensing, imaging, memory storage, intrachip optical communications and other...

- Electrons travel like urban commuters
- After 15 years of research, chemists from Duke University have found that electrons travel through proteins like urban commuters. Like ourselves, these electrons usually find their way through proteins by using the fastest routes, the equivalent of the subway for us. And like us, they also used sometimes alternate routes,...

- 'Ballistic' nanotransistors?
- Computer designers at the University of Rochester UR say they've invented the next generation of transistors. In a short article, ZDNet UK writes that these ballistic deflection transistors BDT could lead to terahertz-speed computers. We are far away from real chips manufactured with this technique, but it's interesting to note...
