Carbon Nanotube Transistors That'll Save Moore's Law are Coming in 2020
Some people fear that Moore's Law will eventually become redundant, but carbon nanotubes are coming to the rescue.
These Robotic Sperm Could Change the Way In-Vitro Fertilisation Works
A team of Dutch engineers just published the details of a curious new invention: tiny robotic sperm that can be controlled with a weak magnetic field
The World's Smallest Nanomotor Spins as Fast as a Jet Engine
A team of engineers at the University of Texas at Austin recently created the world's smallest, fastest nanomotor. Designed to power microscopic machines that could deliver medicine or fight cancer, this thing will fit inside of a human cell.
Scientists Manipulate Electrons Into Material Never Seen on Earth
Stanford scientists have created designer electrons that behave as if they were exposed to a magnetic field of 60 Tesla—a force 30 percent stronger than anything ever sustained on Earth. The work could lead to a revolution in the materials that make everything from video displays to airplanes to mobile phones.
The Money of the Future Will Shine Like Crazy
The Blue Morpho butterfly shines such a brilliant blue it almost seems electric. Its secret? Microscopic holes that play with light in an incredible way. And by using nanotechnology, we can replicate those same effects on printed objects, like money. Bling!
Stanford Develops Nanotube-Infused Artificial Skin for Robots and People Alike
Man and machine might not be that different in the future — especially if they share the same synthetic skin being developed at Stanford University.
