Visions of self-replicating nanomachines that could devour the Earth in a "grey goo" are probably wide of the mark, but "radical nanotechnology" could still deliver great benefits to society. The ...

In July 2020, Promethean Particles won an Institute of Physics Business Innovation Award for solving a key fluid-mechanics problem enabling the use of supercritical fluids for the large-scale ...

Our focused effort is to understand organization of nano-structured materials & nano-scale phenomena (such as interactions between nanoparticles) with the goal of finding novel approaches for optical ...

Today, a life without nanotechnology is hard to imagine. Nanotechnologies – to be more specific: nanomaterials – are already used in numerous products and industrial applications. Our Nanotechnology ...

Since Richard Feynman, the physicist and Nobel Prize laureate, also known as the father of modern nanotechnology presented a famous lecture “There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom” at the California ...

Machine learning, with its ability to analyze large datasets and identify patterns, is particularly well-suited to address the challenges presented by the vast and complex data generated in ...

Worries in the science community about a public backlash against nanotechnology have been growing in recent months. Currently, public fears range from the reasonable, such as the unknown effects of ...
