Using advanced microscopy to nanoengineer new materials for computing and electronics

Advanced microscopy is being used by researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Sungkyunkwan University in Korea to nanoengineer promising materials for computers and electronics in the post-Moore age. Moore's Law, which states that technology progresses as transistor sizes reduce, has historically caused computers to...

Researchers take a step toward creating an axle-rotor nanomachine

University of Washington researchers have taken a major step toward the creation of an axle-rotor nanomachine. The study was published in the journal Science. Scientists described how they used DNA coding to customize E. coli to push them into creating proteins that assembled into rotors...

Haber-Bosch at the atomic scale

Industrial production of NH3 has been performed by the Haber-Bosch process for more than 100 years. The dissociation of N2 feedstock molecules promoted by alkali atom co-catalyst is thought to be the rate limiting step. The Haber-Bosch synthesis consumes 1% of the world's total energy consumption....
