While scientists are developing skills to work with nanoscale precision on the earth s surface the best we can muster below the surface is blindfolded guesswork done with 100-mile precision.
on the nanoscale. Together these surfaces dramatically increased the efficiency of moisture condensation and, by extension, harvesting water from air.

They create metal structures with nanoscale grooves that produce iridescent colors but also trap the light so that viewers can see the intended colors from all angles.
They etched nanoscale grooves on a piece of glass with the same technology used to etch computer chips.
but less hard than polycrystalline diamonds made of nanoscale grains. But Natalia Dubrovinskaia, a crystallographer at the University of Bayreuth in Germany, notes that measuring the properties of superhard materials is problematic
In April Olguin's team released Project Cyborg a Web-based platform geared toward nanoscale molecular modeling and simulations for cellular biology.
âÂ#Âoebeyond these immediate next steps we envision working towards the ultimate development of subsequent generations of untethered nanoscale neural probes that can locally acquire process
The spikes inherited from sunflower pollen provide short range adhesion--over nanoscale distances --while the oxide chemistry provides an adhesion mode that operates over much longer distances--up to one millimeter.
Yakobson is Rice's Karl F. Hasselmann Professor of Mechanical engineering and Materials Science a professor of chemistry and a member of the Richard E. Smalley Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology.
Metal fatigue for example--which can result from an accumulation of nanoscale cracks over time--is probably the most common failure mode for structural metals in general he says.
Nanoscale materials are made up of tiny crystals or grains that are less than 100 nanometers in diameter.
For example materials with nanoscale grains can be harder and stronger than chemically identical materials with larger grains.
But widespread use of nanoscale materials has long been handicapped by the tendency of nanoscale grains to grow
Immune system attacka unique nanoscale drug that can carry a variety of weapons and sneak into cancer cells to break them down from the inside has a new component:
That's still only about the width of a human hair but in the nanoscale realm it's big enough to work with he said.
This multidisciplinary collaboration by the Energy Frontier Research center at Columbia University with Cornell University's Kavli Institute for Nanoscale Science focused on molybdenum disulfide because of its potential to create anything from highly efficient flexible solar cells to conformable
The electron microscopy was performed by atomic imaging experts in the David Muller lab at Cornell University's School of Applied and Engineering Physics and the Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science.
We've integrated our nanowire nanoscale heterostructure into a functional system that mimics the integration in chloroplasts
#Nanostructures improve the efficiency of solar cellsresearchers have been able to improve the efficiency of solar cells by coating the cell surface with extremely small nanoscale structures.
which might bring in lots of new physics and chemistry especially on the nanoscale. For example 2-D boron is more conductive than graphene because of its unique electronic structure and atomic arrangement.
The team's analysis revealed that multiple layers of cells in the seed coat are made each up of a cylindrically layered architecture with high regularity on the nanoscale.
The researchers also benefited from facilities at the Harvard Center for Nanoscale Systems which is part of the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network supported by the U s. National Science Foundation.
The materials at play--graphene and hexagonal boron nitride--have been merged into sheets and built into a variety of patterns at nanoscale dimensions.
Shortly after arriving at Rice in 2000 Pasquali began studying CNT wet-spinning methods with the late Richard Smalley a nanotechnology pioneer and the namesake of Rice's Smalley Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology.
Iridescence in plants is produced by nanoscale ridges on the top of the cells in the petal's epidermal surface.
Nanopillars are engineered nanoscale surfaces with billions of organic posts that resemble blades of grass and like grass blades they are particularly effective at converting light to energy.

and engineers at Penn State the Hungarian Academy of Sciences the Forest Research Institute in Matrafured Hungary and the USDA--created the decoys using a bioreplication process with nanoscale fidelity.
The finished bioreplicated decoys retained the surface texture of the beetle at the nanoscale. Additionally we painted some decoys a metallic green.
Left to their own devices carbon nanotubes form clumps that are perfectly wrong for turning into the kind of strong conductive fibers needed for projects ranging from nanoscale electronics to macro-scale power grids Earlier research at Rice by chemist

Scientists working with nanoscale materials have thought long there's a better way to move electricity from here to there.
Tsentalovich Kono and Pasquali are members of the Richard E. Smalley Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology.
Natelson's group built the nano antenna a few years ago to trap small numbers of molecules in a nanoscale gap between gold electrodes.
 The team recently reported their findings in the Nanoscale. Hydrogen fuel is considered a clean fuel
That s slightly harder than synthetic diamond but less hard than polycrystalline diamonds that are made of nanoscale grains.
vibrations in the surrounding environment derived from the piezoelectric phenomenon could provide power for future nanoscale devices.
But the nanoscale is not just in size, but also in the energy and power consumption,"Parviz said."
