New curriculum mixes nanotechnology and skiing (EurekAlert!)
( University of Nevada, Reno ) “Yes, we’re going to make skis. No, it’s not really Ski Building 101,” said Kam K. Leang, the faculty member and principal investigator for a project to further integrate nanotechnology into the undergraduate curriculum at the University. Leang and his colleagues aim to prepare 21st century mechanical engineers... »
Caltech scientists first to trap light and sound vibrations together in nanocrystal (EurekAlert!)
( California Institute of Technology ) Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have created a nanoscale crystal device that, for the first time, allows scientists to confine both light and sound vibrations in the same tiny space. “This is a whole new concept,” notes Oskar Painter, associate professor of applied physics at Caltech.... »
Caltech Scientists First to Trap Light and Sound Vibrations Together in Nanocrystal (Caltech Today)
Researchers at Caltech have created a nanoscale crystal device that, for the first time, allows scientists to confine both light and sound vibrations in the same tiny space. “This is a whole new concept,” notes Oskar Painter, associate professor of applied physics and the principal investigator on the paper describing the work. “People have... »
