I-Micronews - NANOMATERIALS : A wide range of nano-coatings in a few spray applications ... Easy-to-use nano-coating sprays with optical, electronic, biological properties, etc to cover surfaces. Teams from the Institut Charles Sadron (CNRS / Université de Strasbourg), in collaboration with researchers from the Laboratoire de Biomatériaux et Ingénierie Tissulaire (Inserm / Université de Strasbourg), have managed to improve and extend their technique of “layer by layer” deposition.

New ultra-clean nanowires have great potential in solar cell technology and electronics

New ultra-clean nanowires have great potential in solar cell technology and electronics ScienceDaily (Nov. 12, 2010) — New ultra-clean nanowires produced at the Nano-Science Center, University of Copenhagen will have a central role in the development of new high-efficiency solar cells and electronics on a nanometer scale. PhD student Peter Krogstrup, Niels Bohr Institute, in collaboration with a number of well-known researchers and the company SunFlake A/S, is behind the breakthrough. The new findings have recently been published in the journal Nano Letters.
