Nanomaterials Show Unexpected Strength Under Stress (3/14/2008)

Nanomaterials Show Unexpected Strength Under StressIn yet another twist on the strangeness of the nanoworld, researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Maryland-College Park have discovered that materials such as silica that are quite brittle in bulk form behave as ductile as gold at the nanoscale. Their results may affect the design of future nanomachines. ...> Full Article

Physicists Discover Gold Can Be Magnetic on the Nanoscale (3/6/2008)

Physicists Discover Gold Can Be Magnetic on the NanoscalePhysicists have found that applying an electrical field on a surface-supported gold nanocluster changes its structure from a three-dimensional one to a planar flat structure. In another paper, they relate their discovery that gold in this size regime can be made magnetic through oxygenation of gold nanowires. They also found that up to a certain length, oxygenated gold nanowires behave as a conducting metal, but beyond that, they become insulators. This marks the first time on the nanoscale that such a metal-to-insulation transition has been found on the nanoscale. Both findings are important predictions that could some day be implemented as control parameters governing the chemical and physical material properties employed in nanotechnology. ...> Full Article
