IBM researchers have created transistors out of carbon nanotubes that can outperform similar silicon transistors, a development that helps build the case that carbon may one day become a building block of computing.
Researchers at IBM and the University of Toronto are squeezing light out of molecules.
Motorola is conducting research in a new type of large flat-panel display which they claim has the potential of being cheaper than plasma or LCD (liquid crystal display) screens.
A manufacturing company expects to increase production of the tiny tubes to commercial volumes during the next two years.
They are stronger than steel and as flexible as plastic, conduct energy better than almost any material ever discovered and can be made from unexotic raw materials such as methane gas.
Scientists at IBM Research have discovered a new way to get carbon nanotubes to emit light, a breakthrough that might one day lead to advances in fibre-optic technology.
Researchers at IBM have revealed a new process for fabricating carbon nanotubes that could be incorporated into processors, a breakthrough that could lead to more powerful computers in the coming decades.
As interest in nanotechnology peaks, scientists are claiming a significant breakthrough with the ability to make atoms move one by one.
The only question is which approach will work best -- using molten silicon, designer molecules, or maybe protein globules?
Disposable satellite transmitters, inexpensive medical testing equipment and sensors for automatically tracking inventory or traffic patterns will become possible over the next 10 years through developments in nanotechnology, speakers at the Nanotech 2003 conference said Monday.
