Layered drug nanoparticles can now be produced efficiently and at scale using a microfluidic method that eliminates purification and improves consistency. Since its adaptation to nanoscale materials, ...

DURHAM, N.C. -- Materials scientists at Duke University have theorized a new "oil-and-vinegar" approach to engineering self-assembling materials of unusual architectures made out of spherical ...

Adding a layer of nanoparticles to LED designs could help them produce more light for the same energy, and also increase their lifetime. Adding a layer of nanoparticles to LED designs could help them ...

A new method uses gold to assemble multi-element nanoparticles under mild conditions, offering improvements in catalytic activity and long-term stability. (Nanowerk Spotlight) The drive to engineer ...

The Nanoscale was initially used by R. P. Feynman, a physicist. In his talk, 1959, called “There’s plenty of room at the bottom. But there’s not that much room - to put every atom in its place - the ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A new, onion-like nanoparticle could open new frontiers in biomaging, solar energy harvesting and light-based security techniques. The particle’s innovation lies in its layers: a ...

Multi-layered graphene is a promising carbon-based nanomaterial for a variety of next-generation technologies, but the relationships between its surface structures and properties are not entirely ...

A novel nanoparticle vaccine that combines two major influenza proteins is effective in providing broad, long-lasting protection against influenza virus in mice, showing promise as a universal flu ...
