Editorial: Catalysis by designA fundamental understanding of many factors — including composition, size, shape and surface structure — is vital for the development of new and improved catalysts. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #10, pp575-575 |
Thesis: When it pays to ask the publicWhen a research council in the UK consulted the public about different aspects of nanomedicine, the feedback was loud and clear. Richard Jones reports. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #10, pp578-579 |
News and Views: Catalysis: Individual nanoparticles in actionA catalytic reaction occurring on a single gold nanoparticle can be monitored directly with surface plasmon spectroscopy. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #10, pp583-584 |
News and Views: Flexible electronics: Stretching our imaginationComposites containing ultralong single-walled carbon nanotubes can be integrated with transistors to make stretchable and flexible electronic devices. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #10, pp585-586 |
News and Views: Nanomaterials: Nanotubes reveal their true strengthThe mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes have not matched theoretical predictions in the past. New measurements have now confirmed that nanotubes are indeed as strong as theory suggests. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #10, pp586-587 |
News and Views: Protein engineering: Electrifying cell receptorsIon channels can be attached to certain types of protein receptors in cells to make a detector–switch pair that could be used in various sensing and screening applications. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #10, pp587-588 |
