Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (a new class of technologically important 2D materials) might be ideal in a host of future electronic, optoelectronic and even spintronic devices thanks to the fact that they have very different physical properties from their 3D counterparts. However, although the materials can be easily doped with electrons (known as n-type doping), […]
Congratulations to Dr. Kittiwut Kasemwong a researcher at NANOTEC Nano Delivery System Lab and Dr. Kitti Supchukun, Managing Director of KLEAN Greentech Co.,Ltd whose joint research on “Zeta-Technology” a mycotoxin binding for animal feed (pork, poultry, and fish) received the Silver Prize Award at the recent Seoul International Invention Fair (SIIF) 2014 in Korea. In addition, […]
NanoThailand 2014 opened this morning at Thailand Science Park with a Keynote speech by Prof. Mihail C. Roco, Senior Advisor for Nanotechnology,NSF, USA
A kick off meeting on Bioconvergence Technology collaboration between NANOTEC and H-Guard of Korea opened this morning
The Nano Smart Soil Mobile Unit from NANOTEC joins the Pathumthani Governor in celebrating the 118 Years of the operation of Chulalongkorn Watergate
Organic thin-film-transistor technology has been attracting avid interest, particularly for flexible electronics and devices that interface with biological systems.
Researchers at Northwestern University in the US say that they have designed new types of artificially structured optical materials able to manipulate light in hitherto unimaginable ways. The “lattice opto-materials” as they have been dubbed were developed using Darwinian evolutionary principles thanks to a special algorithm that predicts a specific kind of lattice structure for […]
Researchers at Arizona State University in the US say that they have made a new molecular reader that might be able to sequence DNA. The device works by capturing molecules in a hole cut into a layered tunnel junction. The work is part of a global effort to develop speedy, low-cost methods to read DNA […]
Researchers in the US say that they have made the best 3D topological insulator to date – that is, a material completely insulating in the bulk but conducting at its surface. The structure, made from bismuth antimony tellurium selenide (BiSbTeSe2) might not only be of fundamental importance for testing out a number of condensed matter […]
Reducing the power consumption of modern electronics faces a fundamental hurdle:
Researchers at the University of Toronto in Canada say that they have made the first perovskite-based spherical resonator laser by coating organometallic halide perovskites uniformly onto glass microspheres. The device might be employed in novel optical communications applications, and the new structure also shows promise for solar cells and photodetectors……. http://nanotechweb.org/cws/article/tech/59221 A microsphere coated with […]
Researchers at the University of Texas at San Antonio say that they have produced a new phase map of the copper-nickel nanoalloy – a technologically important catalyst used in a wide range of industrial processes – that goes a long way in explaining how the size and shape of the nanoparticles affect the alloy’s melting […]
Physicists in the US and Taiwan say that they have found the first evidence of superconductivity in the topological insulator bismuth selenide thanks to new spectroscopic observations. The discovery is not only of fundamental importance for a number of condensed matter and particle physics theories but might even be exploited to build topological qubits for […]
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta and Cameron University in Oklahoma say they have seen multiferroic behaviour in a pure metal system
