Ultrathin nanotubes reach 1 nanometer, opening path to smaller electronics

Researchers at the University of Tokyo, Japan, have synthesized highly uniform semiconducting nanotubes just 1 nanometer wide by growing molybdenum disulfide inside protective boron nitride tubes, validating decades-old theoretical predictions and offering a new path for miniaturized electronic devices.

New state-of-the-art facility provides access to advanced materials, manufacturing tools

A new facility at Arizona State University’s Tempe campus will give researchers and corporate partners access to a wide range of advanced materials and manufacturing tools, supporting work with cutting-edge technologies. The Biodesign Institute marked the opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and facility tours earlier this month. Managed by the Biodesign Center for Sustainable Macromolecular Materials […]
