[Nanotechnology] – What is a Nanosuperconductor ? 12 August 2019

Researchers are currently bringing a lot of attention to nanophysics; the study of physics involving the nanometer scale. In particular, they are highlighting the development of nanoscale superconductors. These nanoscale superconductors are known officially as ‘nanosuperconductors’ and are classified as a superconducting material developed at the scale of a nanometer.

[Thin Films] – Nanoparticle Decoration of Carbon Nanotubes by Sputtering 11 August 2019

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) that have been decorated with nanoparticles are effective biological and chemical sensors, photovoltaics, electronic conformal thermal interface substances, and surfaces for heterogeneous catalysis. The particle structure of the sidewalls of the CNT has an effect on the performance and properties of metal-nanotube hybrids for these types of applications.
