In the world of the very small, researchers at Shanxi University in China have announced progress in understanding the single-molecule magnet, which combines the classical macroscale properties of a magnet with the quant...
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in conjunction with the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, Ca. recently reported a detailed study of the interactions of water soluble semi-conductor quantum dots (QDs) with the electro-active neuro-transmitter dopamine.
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated for the first time the conversion of near-infrared 1,300 nm wavelength single photons emitted from a true quantum source, a semiconductor quantum dot, to a near-visible wavelength of 710 nm.
Georgia Tech and Emory University have received a five-year $14.6 million contract from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to continue the development of nanotechnology and biomolecular engineering tools and methodologies for detecting and treating atherosclerosis.
Our attempts to use solar energy continue to be very ineffective; the true masters of this craft are photosynthetic plants, algae, and bacteria. Science is trying to emulate these organisms.
Fluorescent tags have become essential tools in a variety of medical applications ranging from drug discovery to diagnostics. The excitation wavelengths required for most common fluorophores either generate high levels of background fluorescence, which can swamp the signal, or cause photodamage in biological samples.
Two groups of scientists who rarely get together will jointly consider the technological future of nanoscale materials in a workshop that will meet at the University of Chicago’s Kersten Physics Teaching Center from Sept. 16-18.
