New material for nanoscale computer chips

Nanochemists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Nano-Science Center, Department of Chemistry at University of Copenhagen have developed nanoscale electric contacts out of organic and inorganic nanowires. In the contact ...

Coiled nanowires may hold key to stretchable electronics

Researchers at North Carolina State University have created the first coils of silicon nanowire on a substrate that can be stretched to more than double their original length, moving us closer to incorporating stretchable ...

'Nanowire' measurements could improve computer memory

(PhysOrg.com) -- A recent study at the National Institute of Standards and Technology may have revealed the optimal characteristics for a new type of computer memory now under development. The work, performed in collaboration ...
