Deformation-Induced Supersaturation During High-Pressure Torsion
Bulk nanostructured materials have been the subject of extensive research over the past couple of decades due to their extraordinary mechanical and functional properties.
Supercritical Lens Improves Optical Resolution at a Distance
Minghui Hong and colleagues report super-critical-lens (SCL) optical label‐free microscopy, which clearly distinguishes a pattern with a feature size of 65 nm in air and with a 55 μm working distance.
Cancer Immunotherapy and Nanotechnology: Taking the Best from Two Worlds
Researchers are applying nanotechnology to cancer immunotherapy toward the development of nanocarriers for delivery of cancer vaccines and chemo-immunotherapies.
Hot Electrons Racing through Gold Nanoantennas
Hot electron injection within hybrid metal–transition metal dichalcogenides systems is analyzed and offers new physical insights into enhancement of optoelectronic activity with nanoantennas.
Proteins Feel the Pinch with DNA Nanotweezers
In a study published in the new journal Advanced Biosystems, scientists from the University of Hong Kong demonstrated that it is possible to use a DNA aptamer split across a tweezer such that the presence of the target protein triggers the DNA tweezer mechanism.
