A nanowire endoscope for imaging inside a single cell
December 22, 2011

Endoscope Sensing An endoscope that can provide high-resolution optical images of the interior of a single living cell, or precisely deliver genes, proteins, therapeutic drugs or other cargo without injuring or damaging the cell, has been developed by researchers from Berkeley Lab and the University of California (UC) Berkeley. The researchers  attached a tin-oxide nanowire waveguide to the tapered end of … more…


Reconfigurable silicon nanowire transistors
December 22, 2011

Universal transistor Technical University Munich researchers have developed a nanoscale universal transistor that can be configured as p-FET or n-FET simply by applying a voltage. The design can be flexibly reconfigured during operation to perform different logic computations, allowing for unprecedented circuit design flexibility.
