Nanomaterials are, as defined by Standford University's Environmental Health & Safety Department as "materials with a minimum of one external dimension that ranges in size between 1-100 nanometers [2.

Cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) allows us to observe samples in a preserved state that is close to their native form, making it a highly effective way to examine biological samples.

Every day, more industrial processes are moving to a new, more active form of the materials they use. This new form is 1,000 times smaller than the micrometer-sized materials that have been common in ...

During plant growth, both abiotic and biotic stresses are present. As a result, finding solutions to help plants cope with stress is critical for resourceful and sustainable agriculture, as well as ...

Nanomaterials are poised for widespread use in the construction industry, where they can offer significant advantages for a variety of applications ranging from making more durable concrete to ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Dimensions typically refer to the measurable extent of height, width, and depth, defining an object's presence in physical space. However, in the weird and wonderful quantum world ...

LMU researcher Professor Alexander Urban and his team have developed a tool that could revolutionize the design of new materials. Synthesizer is a platform that combines automated chemical synthesis, ...

The early diagnosis of disease is one of the most important factors in a patient’s clinical treatment. Depending on the type of disease, an early diagnosis may broaden the range of potential treatment ...

The Laboratory for Emergent Nanomaterials, directed by Carson Bruns, manipulates matter on the smallest of scales to create materials with emergent properties, characterized by novel and sometimes ...

Parkinson’s disease (PD) presents a major challenge in aging neuroscience, particularly given the strong influence of age-related biological changes on ...

Traditionally, electronic devices are mainly manufactured by photolithography, vacuum deposition, and electroless plating processes. In contrast to these multistaged, expensive, and wasteful methods, ...
