NIST Releases First Certified Reference Material for Single-Wall Carbon NanotubesDec. 2011- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has issued the world’s first reference material for single-wall carbon nanotube soot. Distantly related to the soot in your fireplace or in a candle flame, nanotube-laden soot is the primary industrial source of single-wall carbon nanotubes, perhaps the archetype of all nanoscale materials. The new NIST material offers companies and ... |
Responsible Development of Nanotechnology: Maximizing Results while Minimizing RiskOct. 2011- Nanotechnology holds the promise of new materials and devices that can be designed and engineered to solve critical questions in almost every sector of our economy – from treating cancer, to cleaning contaminated water, accelerating advanced manufacturing, meeting energy needs, and fixing our roadways and bridges. That’s why, for the last 10 years, the United States has engaged in an ... |
Graphene Quality Control Goes IndustrialFeb. 2011- Probably the hottest new material system being researched at the moment, graphene consists of just a single atomic layer of carbon atoms bound into crystal lattice. This carbon material reveals many unique properties including extremely high electron mobility and thermal conductivity. The most promising applications of graphene are in electronics (as transistors and interconnects), detectors (as ... |
Atomic-Scale Metrology is Key in Fabricating Graphene DevicesJan. 2011- Graphene is a very interesting nanomaterial with potential for applications in many different fields including nanoelectronics. However, the properties of graphene can vary broadly and depend sensitively on its integration in device structures and the details of its interaction with other materials, such as underlying substrates or gate dielectrics. Unlike other semiconductor electronic devices, ... |
