(Nanowerk Spotlight) The ability to control a material's properties at the nanoscale underlies many remarkable structures in nature. Seashells achieve their strength through precise arrangements of ...

Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete ...

ORNL-led research demonstrated how an electric stylus can precisely pattern and measure the behavior of ferroelectric materials at the nanoscale, enabling scientists to create, understand and control ...

Researchers at TU Delft and Brown University have developed scalable nanotechnology-based lightsails that could support future advances in space exploration and experimental physics. Their research, ...
