Professor Giuseppe Battaglia and Professor Adam J. Engler talk to AZoNano about Nano-Scopic Foam Biomaterial.
Dr. Xiaolong Zou, Research Associate at Rice University talks to AZoNano about Sub-Nanowire Formation.
In the LED, semi-conductor, automotive and medical sectors, surface metrology and characterization is an important criterion to ensure product performance in a wide range of applications. These industries use 3D optical microscopy for fast and accurate process monitoring, research, and product development.
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a two-dimensional (2D) nanostructured material that has been used for many years as an industrial lubricant in its bulk form. The 2D form of the material was not discovered until 2011, when scientists succeeded in producing a transistor made from this new material.

Nanopollution is a growing issue - we are already releasing a large amount of nanomaterials into the environment, and we do not have a strong idea how many of them will impact human health. Research is progressing rapidly, and hopefully we will build a picture of which materials need particular care and attention, and develop methods of dealing with them, before too much damage is done.

For years, there has been a growing demand for materials that are lightweight with high strength. Metal matrix nanocomposites are often better in these areas than pure metals or alloys, and CNTs are an increasingly popular composite material.
Researchers are paying more and more attention to graphene derived materials which may be just as revolutionary as graphene itself.
