Editorial: Conferences in the nanoworldScientific meetings and conferences come in all shapes and size, and love them or loathe them, they have an important role to play in all areas of science. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp371-371 |
Thesis: Indefinite particlesIt is difficult to be definitive about certain aspects of nanotechnology, especially the use of nanoparticles in medical applications. Chris Toumey looks at two views. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp372-373 |
News and Views: Nanodevices: Charge of the heavy brigadeHybrid devices that rely on the movement of both electrons and ions might one day challenge conventional silicon electronics by exploiting both classical and quantum electron transport. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp377-378 |
News and Views: Nanotoxicology: The asbestos analogy revisitedDirect injection of long multiwalled carbon nanotubes into the abdominal cavity of mice produces asbestos-like pathogenic behaviour. What does this finding mean for nanotube safety? Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp378-379 |
News and Views: Surface patterning: Ancients inspire modern memoryA stencilling technique for depositing arrays of nanoscale ferroelectric capacitors on a surface could be useful in data storage devices. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp380-381 |
News and Views: Nanoelectronics: The strain of it allElectron interferometry can be used to measure strain with nanoscale resolution in electronic devices by exploiting a simple idea found in physics textbooks. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp381-382 |
News and Views: Nanomechanics: Macromolecules flex their musclesIt will take a concerted effort for nanomachines to express themselves on a macroscopic scale. Could self-organizing helical polymers help? Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp383-384 |
News and Views: Instrumentation: Carbon nanotubes on the brainThe performance of metal electrodes used for studying brain function and relieving the symptoms of medical conditions can be significantly improved by coating them with carbon nanotubes. Nature Nanotechnology, vol. 3 #7, pp384-385 |
