Nano Technology

The infinitely small will soon offer medical evidence to the infinitely large. I am convinced the 400 foreign auditors – and 24 members of AIRC Scientific Technical Committee, who selected the programs related to the second call of 5 per thousand.

Among these, the project coordinated by Giuseppe Toffoli the National Cancer Institute of Aviano on nanotechnologies applied to cancer diagnosis. The kick-off will take place this morning at the Institute of Friuli, in the continuation of the activity is the participation of 15 groups and 114 researchers with experience in seemingly distant disciplines – chemists, physicists, engineers, doctors and biologists who, thanks to a terrific perspective , will deliver concrete results to the cancer patient.  Read the rest of this entry »

Asian and German researchers have developed a storage device based on nanotechnology and DNA of salmon. The future of storage of data is more and more organic

Rome – Memristors ? Chip PCM ? Magnetic RAM ? None of this: the future of permanent storage may be organic, made ​​from DNA of salmon and a touch that never hurts nanotech. It speaks to the precision of DNA strands extracted from salmon sperm , which, properly treated, they become storage devices WORM (“Write Once Read Many Times”) fully operational.

IBM is back in the headlines, data stored in 12 magnetic atoms

After 30 years of studies and research in the field of nano technology, IBM wants to testify to the world his power, so that his researchers were able to store data in only 12 magnetic atoms. It goes without saying that such a space is significantly lower than all existing hard drives feature about a million atoms to store one bit of information.

At the end of the total development of the project will be all set to create a new type of memory, great for all devices, from computers to corporate servers.

The researchers started their work from the atom, which is the tiniest unit of data storage, magnetic storage, highlighting a 100 times thicker than that of the existing hard disks and solid state memory chips. Read the rest of this entry »

Samsung and Apple in the race to secure a new nanotechnology

Nano technology is the future for sure, and probably this application will make happy owners of a million high-tech mobile phones are irreparably damaged by water – Statistics of the Daily Mail , which also shows as “half of these damages are caused by falls in the toilet bowl.

Now, manufacturers are planning to take the problem head-on, matching the production of a new smartphone spray nanotechnology impermeabilizzera external and internal components of the smartphone. Read the rest of this entry »

Manufacturers amazed with new sealing process – supposedly already Samsung and Apple in conversation

The technology company HZO saw at CES in Las Vegas with his eponymous nano-coating sensation, which can make water-resistant electronic devices, among other things. If all components of a device coated with the fine-mesh film, could MP3 player, smartphone and Co. even be used underwater. To demonstrate the liquid-repellent properties, the company published on the live demos and sample videos.

Corporations in the conversation

Compared to the industry blog Pocket-lint is HZO was confident that the nano-coating would possibly come back in the next models of large mobile phone manufacturers. “We expect HZO in smartphones next season,” said a company spokesman. Both Samsung and Apple are in the conversation as a buyer. Details on the manufacturer’s one not. Read the rest of this entry »

And ‘yet she, the award-winning director of Advanced Power Sources Laboratory at the University of Buffalo Esther Takeuchi, amazing. Twenty years after inventing the first lithium / silver vanadium oxide that feed portable defibrillators implanted every year to 300,000 patients around the world, and having registered 140 patents (record for women in the U.S.), the American Biophysics has taken another major step forward in power virtually endless.

Given the growing world population, protecting the environment is becoming increasingly important. Soil, water and air must be free from burdens already introduced as effective as possible. In addition, we are faced with the task to use the resources in the future of our environment even more gentle and responsible. Nano technology can make a significant contribution.

The contribution of nano technology to environmental protection has many perspectives. These include nano materials Read the rest of this entry »

Today, only a small portion of all known human disease is effectively treated. Many causes of disease can be detected only at great cost and with reduced reliability. Is created until the diagnosis elapses while the patient valuable time that could be crucial for its survival. Especially viral diseases or cancer, researchers and physicians with enormous challenges. Health care for the future should be faster, more reliable, more effective and better tolerated. To achieve this goal, we hope in the world wide Nano medicine and Nano biotechnology. Read the rest of this entry »

Each future technology brings not only opportunities but also risks. Proactive, responsible research and action are paramount, to optimally utilize the potential of nano technology. The Federal Ministry for Education and Research has been intentionally actively support measures for the safe handling of nano technology. Possible implications for humans and the environment should be assessed scientifically identified early, informed and dominated the long term or avoided altogether. Read the rest of this entry »
