Creating Atomic Scale Nanoribbons – Beckman Institute

Silicon crystals are the semiconductors most commonly used to make transistors, which are critical electronic components used to carry out logic operations in computing. However, as faster and more powerful processors are created, silicon has reached a performance limit: the faster it conducts electricity, the hotter it gets, […]

    Recent Headlines: Nanofabrication: Stanford Engineers Create Prototype Chip Just Three Atoms Thick – Stanford Ever since scientists discovered that atomically thin materials could have useful electronic properties, engineers have been seeking ways to mass-produce so-called single-layer chips. A new technique shows how it might be done. Flexible Device Captures Energy From Human Motion – PHYS The day of charging cellphones […]

    Recent Headlines: Nanofabrication: Scientists Just Developed the World’s Smallest Transistor – Science Alert Scientists have succeeded in creating the world’s smallest transistor, producing a switch with a working 1-nanometre gate. If you want to know how incredibly tiny that is, a human hair is around 80,000 to 100,000 nanometres wide. On the Thermodynamic Path Enabling a Room-temperature, Laser-assisted Graphite […]

    Recent Headlines: Nanofabrication: Smarter Self-assembly Opens New Pathways for Nanotechnology – Brookhaven National Laboratory Brookhaven Lab scientists discover a way to create billionth-of-a-meter structures that snap together in complex patterns with unprecedented efficiency. Simulation-Guided Drafting Process Introduces New Possibilities in Nanomanufacturing – Azo Nano Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in association with the Graz University […]

Recent Headlines: Nanofabrication: NRL Develops New Low-Defect Method to Nitrogen Dope Graphene Resulting in Tunable Bandstructure – U.S. NRL An interdisciplinary team of scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), Electronics Science and Technology and Materials Science and Technology Divisions, has demonstrated hyperthermal ion implantation (HyTII) as an effective means of substitutionally doping graphene – a hexagonally-arranged […]
