Gas vesicles are among the largest known protein nanostructures produced and assembled inside microbial cells. These hollow, air-filled cylindrical nanostructures found in certain aquatic microbes ...

The shape, size and optical properties of 3-dimensional nanostructures can now be simulated in advance before they are produced directly with high precision on a wide variety of surfaces. Nanoprobes ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Chirality is a property of objects that exist in different forms that are mirror images of each other but cannot be superimposed, like left hand and right hand. It is a common ...

Thermo Scientific’s NanoBuilder software is a tool for systematically planning and constructing multi-layer nanodevices. This is done by dividing CAD files into ordered projects, which allows for the ...

Researchers have discovered a unique property in complex nanostructures that has thus far only been found in simple nanostructures. Additionally, they have unraveled the internal mechanics of the ...

The developed electric-field-driven generative-nanoimprinting technology enables direct fabrication of large-area tilted metasurface nanostructures with cost-efficiency and high-throughput advantages.

What is Block Copolymer Lithography? Block copolymer lithography is a nanofabrication technique that utilizes the self-assembly properties of block copolymers to create ordered nanostructures. Block ...

For around 20 years, it has been possible to modify surfaces via nanoparticles so that they concentrate or manipulate light in the desired way or trigger other reactions. Such optically active ...
