There are countless nanoscopic architectures in nature, creating iridescence, sticky feet, magnetic navigation – and more.
Nanotechnology brings together multiple science disciplines to create devices that mimic the refinements of nature. It’s difficult – and exhilarating.
Nanotechnology isn't science fiction – you can find it in the latest TV screens, solar cells and tennis rackets.
Last week, Elon Musk 'called BS' on nanotechnology. And it threw up an important question: just what is nanotech, and is it more hype than science?
A new pill may lower blood alcohol levels, helping a hangover and preventing alcohol overdose deaths.
Many socks, towels and other textiles are treated with silver nanoparticles to kill germs and odors. When the silver washes out, it can pollute waterways. Two chemists propose a way to collect it from wastewater.
New research shows bees see a blue halo around flowers thanks to nanostructures on its petals.
The more we learn about bio-nano science, the easier it will be to design nanoparticles that behave like we want them to.
Coating paper with an inexpensive thin film can allow users to print and erase a physical page as many as 80 times. That reduces both the cost and the environmental effects of paper use.
Once the subject of fantastical stories, nanoscience is now changing the world as we know it.
These mini lightning bolts have been known for millennia. Understanding static electricity at the atomic level opens the door for new technologies – as well as ways to cut down on the tiny zaps.
Postage-stamp sized patches that target vaccines to the immune system are now in clinical trials.
A new technique can remove noise from tiny electronic circuits, raising hopes of extremely efficient electronics and quantum technologies.
The smallest motors ever made could one day have a huge impact on our lives.
We might think our technological innovations are driving us towards a cyborg future, but is it the brain doing all the work?
New research shows how adding memory to bacterial circuits could help us harness their computing power.
From the kitchen sink to the laundry and garage -- nanotechnology has already made its way into the average household.
Tastier salt, packaging that alerts you to food that has gone off and fish oil that tastes better – nanoparticles have lots of potential.
Two new studies from Food Standards Australia and New Zealand show there's no evidence that nanoparticles in food present a health risk, but there's more research to be done.
