Penn Material Scientists Turn Light Into Electrical Current Using A Golden Nanoscale System (Medical News Today)
Material scientists at the Nano/Bio Interface Center of the University of Pennsylvania have demonstrated the transduction of optical radiation to electrical current in a molecular circuit. The system, an array of nano-sized molecules of gold, respond to electromagnetic waves by creating surface plasmons that induce and project electrical current across molecules, similar to that... »

A ‘fountain of youth’ for stem cells? (EurekAlert!)
( Cell Transplantation Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair ) Stems cells used for transplantation in the nervous system to provide neural regeneration are fragile, but can be kept “forever young” during implantation through the use of self-assembling nanofiber scaffolds (SAPNS), a nanotechnology application for implanting young cells. By manipulating cell density... »
Nanoparticles go platinum: NCEM instruments provide key images (PhysOrg)
At Berkeley Lab’s National Center for Electron Microscopy it was revealed that single-stranded DNA can disperse bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes into individual tubes and serve as guideposts for synthesizing platinum nanoparticles onto these tubes.
