Interview: Harold Craighead
Harold Craighead, head of the Nanobiotechnology Center at Cornell, is considered to be one of the great international figures of the nanoscience revolution. He talks to Ottilia Saxl of NANO Magazine about Cornell’s early vision for supporting nanoscience research, his own role in realizing a netwokd of national centres to su...
Clean Tech: Nanotechnology, the future for sustainable technology
While the media attention on the Copenhagen conference on climate change has subsided and the pressure on politicians of all nations to reach a meaningful emission reduction target may have been taken off the boil, the impact of global warming on our environment and climate keeps mounting. Climate change, long-term energy ...
Taking the Heat
Nanomaterials hold great potential for enabling the creation of dramatically more efficient everyday systems, such as less toxic car exhaust fumes and improved sensor technology. Much potential has indeed been proven in laboratory experiments but one major hurdle has been hampering their emergence into practical applications in the real world: He...
Issue 15 - Nano for the Military
We shed light on a 'dark corner' of nanotechnology. Read about the military applications of nano, the nano enhanced army, Gulf War Syndrome and nanopathology, and the ethical concerns around the huge investments made into defence. The ...
