Thanks to new atomic force microscopy experiments, researchers from Russia and Switzerland say that they have observed the first-ever biological example of Turing nanopatterns – in the corneae of insects. The work could shed more light on the mechanisms underlying the formation of such 3D patterns in living organisms, and may even help in the […]
Researchers at Northwestern University in the US say that they have made the first three-terminal memristor based on grain boundaries in a 2D material called molybdenum disulphide. The device could be used as a memory element in integrated circuits and next-generation computers that mimic how the human brain works…… http://nanotechweb.org/cws/article/tech/60892 Tuning memristors
Correcting quantum errors in superconducting circuits Quantum computers of the future will be built from large numbers of quantum bits (or qubits), which will be in certain quantum states. However, such states are extremely fragile and are easily destroyed by “bit errors” coming from external noise in the environment, and physicists have yet been unable […]
Researchers at the University of Texas say they have made the first flexible ambipolar field-effect transistor based on few-layer black phosphorus (or phosphorene). The device has a high carrier mobility of around 310 cm2/V.s and an effective drain current modulation of more than 103. These values are better than those seen in flexible transistors made from […]
This year’s Descartes-Huygens Prize has been awarded to two physicists, Ludwik Leibler and Willem Vos, for their research in polymer science and nanophotonics. The prize was set up by the French and Dutch governments in 1995 to reward scientists from the two countries for their research and for their contribution to collaboration between France and […]
Laser light purifies nanotube mix As-grown single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTS) consist of a mixture of both metallic and semiconducting tubes
A new design for a cavity-free nanolaser has been proposed by physicists at Imperial College London
Congratulations to Assoc. Prof. Prasert Pavasant, Senior Advisor to NANOTEC and Lecturer at Dept of Chemical Engineering, Chulalongkorn University recipient of the Thailand Research Fund (TRF) Grant
NANOTEC wins NSTDA Investors’ Day Award at IPITEX 2014 Dr. Thitikorn Boonkoom a researcher at NANOTEC Integrated Nanosystem Lab (INS) gave an outstanding investment pitching performance on Q-Log (fresh food logger) at NSTDA’s Investors’ Day 2014 which was held in conjunction with IPITEX 2014 at BITEC, Bang Na. A total of 27 teams from various research institutions […]
The One Tambon One Product (OTOP) is a government initiated stimulus program designed to support locally made and marketed products of each subdistricts.
On May 26, 2014, HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn paid a royal private visit to NSTDA and Nano Characterization Laboratory at NANOTEC to produce a series of Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images
Techniques to integrate electronic and optical circuits are crucial for developing data-handling and transfer devices that are both ultrafast and compact.
Nano Together in ChiangMai (June 20, 2013)
The Australian Embassy in Bangkok and NANOTEC organized a special talk on “Solar Cell Research in Australia” at Thailand Science Park. Speakers
Realizing the cruicial role of utilizing nanotechnology in everyday life, Thailand is taking necessary steps to building public awareness to direct and indirect effects of nanomaterials and nanaoproducts to health and environment.
[BANGKOK] Recent flooding in Thailand has given the country’s nanotechnology research centre an opportunity to show how nano products ranging from antimalarial bednets to flood prevention technology could help mitigate the impact of future natural disasters.
The number of women involved in science and technology is on the rise especially in developing countries such Thailand.
