Nagoya University researchers say they have designed a laser diode that emits the shortest-wavelength ultraviolet light to-date, with potential applications in disinfection, dermatology, and DNA…
JAXA and NASA satellite observations show where killer electrons are generated in the Van Allen radiation belts surrounding Earth. A collaboration between researchers in Japan,…
Scientists at Aalto University, Finland, and Nagoya University, Japan, have found a new way to make ultra-clean carbon nanotube transistors with superior semiconducting properties. Single-wall…
A new, cheaper method easily and effectively separates two types of carbon nanotubes. The process, developed by Nagoya University researchers in Japan, could be up-scaled…
New strategy developed to kill pathogens resistant to antibiotics. A potentially deadly, antibiotic-resistant bacterium present in hospitals, can be killed by hijacking its haem-acquisition system…
The Earth’s magnetosphere contains plasma, an ionized gas composed of positive ions and negative electrons. The motion of these charged plasma particles is controlled by…
Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) and their research team involving researchers of JASRI, Osaka University, Nagoya Institute of Technology, and Nara Institute…
MicroRNA extraction using nanowires. After introducing a urine sample onto the device, extracellular vesicles are captured by a nanowire substrate via electrostatic forces. MicroRNAs can…
A team of astronomers has observed a long-hypothesized mechanism for coronal heating in which magnetic waves are converted into heat energy. Modern telescopes and satellites…
A team of researchers has identified a new form of carbon, a “grossly warped nanographene.” Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts – Chemists at Boston College and Nagoya…
