A controlling share of the worldwide battery market is comprised of lithium batteries. Their popularity can be credited to lithium’s status as an outstanding anode material, boasting the highest theoretical capacity and lowest electrochemical potential of all recognized candidate elements.
Many 2D materials have now been theoretically or practically explored showing odd properties which are completely different from those of the bulk '3D' material and are categorized as graphene-related.

Nanotechnology deals with materials on a nanometer scale, which is a thousand times smaller than the micrometer scale. This is comparable in size to biomolecules and biomaterials, rather than to the plant and animal cells or viruses with which biotechnology works.

Nanotechnology is a branch of science dealing with the very small, smaller than the width of a human hair. But how can the very small be applied to the massive world of sports and can it really make the difference between winning and losing?

Researchers of the Niels Bohr Institute of the University of Copenhagen’s Quantum Photonics Group have been performing groundbreaking research to analyze the quantum interactions between light and nanophotonic semiconductor materials.
This article demonstrates how researchers at the Penn State University cleanly downsized a standard glass microscope slide using the LatticeAx and eliminated more than a day of extra work, although the exclusively prepared slide was too tall to fit in their AFM.
This article describes how scientists at the University of Cambridge used the LatticeAx cleaving machine to support their research into a three-dimensional material with highly unique properties.
Cleaving is a fast and simple method used for preparing samples of semiconductor materials, including silicon. In contrast, sapphire does not cleave well, despite being a single crystal.
In-situ TEM and EELS reveal oxidation dynamics in bimetallic nanoparticles, showing shell formation and ion diffusion.
Cheap Tubes is fascinated to read about how their products are being utilized by researchers and pioneer adopters of new nanotechnology products.
