Last month an essay that I wrote on what will happen to employment after nanofactories are created appeared in the February nanotech-now report. In March, an essay about predicting the future and a set of predictions that I made will appear in the nanotech-now report. Over several articles on this site I will post up …
there is an interesting article at a longevity site. It discusses what happened with Drexler and MNT. The attacks on Drexler – and on advanced nanomedicine at one point –were really quite beyond the pale. It was all a part of short-termistposturing on the part of certain pigs scrabbling at the governmenttrough; pretty despicable stuff. …
Process for creating organized nanotube arrays developed This process could allow polymer/nanotube mixes to retain more of the strength and superior characteristics of nanotubes. A team of researchers has developed a new process to make flexible, conducting ‘nano skins’ for a variety of applications, from electronic paper to sensors for detecting chemical and biological agents. …
Chemistry professor Weitao Yang and two post doctoral associates proposed a computer-assisted way to find novel and superior materials. “linear combination of atomic potentials” (LCAP), is a property of all molecules. LCAP accounts for energy relationships between electrons and associated nuclei in the atoms making up all possible molecules. Using LCAP would enable targeted searches …
