By discovering new ways to manipulate matter at the atomic and molecular levels, advances in nanotechnology are paving the way for innovations in medicine, electronics, materials science and ...

This type of etching is typically achieved using etchants that have a high reactivity and low dependence on crystal orientation. Isotropic etching is useful for creating curved or sloped ...

The scientists found nanostructures around the vents that can act as selective ion channels, which means they work a bit like underwater filters – letting certain types of charged particles ...

Researchers at the University of Birmingham have developed a new method for the rapid, scalable preparation of uniform nanostructures directly from block polymers. This novel approach, led by the ...
