Nanotechnology is predicted to revolutionize the control over materials and properties at ultrafine scales and the sensitivity of tools and devices applied in various scientific and technological fields. Dentistry as an individual healthcare unit is not exempted, having already been targeted directly with novel ‘nano-materials’ at the same time as indirectly enjoying the benefits of nano-relate...

Research in recent years has greatly advanced the understanding and capabilities of multi-beam interference (MBI). With this technology it is now possible to generate a wide range of one-, two-, and three-dimensional periodic optical-intensity distributions at the microand nano-scale over a large length/area/volume. These patterns may be used directly or recorded in photo-sensitive materials us...

DPNTM is a versatile technology that leverages Scanning Probe Microscopy for applications in biotechnology, photomask repair, molecular-electronics, nano-electronics and mask-less lithography. The DPN process was augmented for biotechnology applications (genomics, proteomics) through the design, development, prototype fabrication, testing and manufacture of commercial microfluidic systems calle...

Fabrication, characterization and application of micro-/nano-rods/wires are among the hottest topics in materials science and applied physics. Micro-/nano-rod-based structures and devices are developed for a wide-ranging use in various fields of micro-/nanoscience (e.g. biology, electronics, medicine, optics, optoelectronics, photonics and sensors). It is well known that the structure and prope...

Nano-floating gate memory devices were fabricated on a flexible plastic substrate by a low-temperature fabrication process. The memory characteristics of ZnO-based thin-film transistors with Al nanoparticles embedded in the gate oxides were investigated in this study. Their electron mobility was found to be 0.18 cm(2)/V·s and their on/off ratio was in the range of 10(4)-10(5). The threshold vol...
