Scientists from the Chalmers University of Technology have developed a flexible detector that can be used in teraHertz frequencies, or at frequencies of 1000 GHz. They achieved this by using graphene transistors on plastic substrates.
A study by researchers from Swansea University has demonstrated that advancements in nanowire structures will pave the way for developing more durable and stable nanotechnology for application in futuristic semiconductor devices.
Charging cellphones within seconds is getting closer to reality with the recent achievement of researchers at the University of Waterloo, who used nanotechnology to considerably improve energy-storage devices called supercapacitors.
An international research team headed by scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) were the very first to develop a novel thin, organic film capable of supporting a million more times read-write cycles and consuming1,000 times less power than commercial flash memories.
Graphene, a one-atom-thick layer of the stuff in pencils, is considered as a better conductor compared to copper and is extremely promising for electronic devices with on catch: Electrons that pass through it cannot be stopped.
Developments in the field of nanoelectronics, that is, the application of nanotechnology to electronic components, has been powered up by the ever-expanding requirement to reduce the size of electronic devices in an attempt to develop smaller, smarter, and faster gadgets such as memory storage devices, computers, medical diagnostic tools, and displays.
A team of researchers at Concordia have achieved a breakthrough that could make electronic devices work even smarter.
A team of researchers from the Universities of Bristol and Bedfordshire, in partnership with multinational company ABB, have developed and tested a series of plasmonic nanoantenna arrays that could lead to the creation of a new generation of ultrasensitive and economical fluorescence sensors that could be used to monitor the quality of water.
Researchers from the U.S. and Korea used a simple layer-by-layer coating technique in order to develop a paper-based flexible supercapacitor capable of being used to help power wearable devices.
A touch of asphalt could be the secret to high-capacity lithium metal batteries that are capable of charging 10 to 20 times faster than commercial lithium-ion batteries, according to Rice University scientists.
