The Berkeley team improved their silver-film superlens by adding 35-nanometre-wide corrugations to its surface. These diffract light waves from an object’s near-field, turning them into normal light waves. The superlens was able to distinguish two wires positioned just 70 nm apart – a resolution nearly three times better than that of conventional optics. Conventional lenses …
Software controlled assembly of DNA oligomers one of the likely ideas factory projects. (In biochemistry, the term oligomer is used for short, single stranded DNA fragments, generally used in hybridization experiments. It can also refer to a protein complex made of two or more subunits. In this case, a complex made of several different protein …
New lighter ceramic armor with some nanotechnology material aspects may appear in Iraq in 2007 They intend to mimic sea snail shells. By alternating very thin layers of a hard chalk-like material with layers of its own sticky proteins (snail spittle, if you will), sea snails create shells that are tough, light and durable. “We’re …
I have made a long bet prediction. This costs $50. Anyone is free to challenge this prediction and a long bet can be negotiated. There will be a quantum computer with over 100 qubits of processing capability sold either as a hardware system or whose use is made available as a commercial service by Dec …
