The new material is only 1.8 millimeters thick, combining carbon nanotubes with aramid polymers, the latter of which are also ...

Scientists create a composite fiber using nanotubes that stops bullet impacts better than Kevlar technology while using ...

A particle accelerator that produces intense X-rays could be squeezed into a device that fits on a table, my colleagues and I ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Ever since the first demonstration of graphene in 2004, scientists have discovered more than 2 500 other layered, atomically thin (two-dimensional, 2D), materials. While these ...

For the first time, researchers have made niobium sulfide metallic nanotubes with stable, predictable properties, a ...

Researchers synthesize and image single-walled CrI3 magnetic nanotubes, marking a key advance in quantum materials and low-dimensional magnetism. What distinguishes this work is the confinement of the ...

Researchers from the School of Chemistry at the University of Nottingham captured the moment when Kr atoms united, one by one, inside a “nano test tube” container that had a diameter half a million ...

Researchers discover crystalline zeolites in a nanotubular (1D) shape. Zeolites, which are crystalline porous materials, are very widely used in the production of chemicals, fuels, materials, and ...

Carbon nanotube transistors are finally making progress for potential use in advanced logic chips after nearly a quarter century in R&D. The question now is whether they will move out of the lab and ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have used a surfactant to disperse insulating boron nitride nanotubes and coat them onto surfaces without bundling. The team demonstrated ...
