Building Nanostructures for Electronics; Better Interconnect Performance with CNTs; Creating Nanoswitch by Tuning Molecule Orientation The position of a molecule encapsulated in a carbon nanotube can be tuned, enabling the nanotube to be used for non-volatile memory. Quantum modeling shows that CNT bundles outperform copper nanowires as interconnects. Copolymers are being used to develop various nanostructures for electronics. Utilizing a technique that combines low temperature measurements and theoretical calculations, researchers have revealed the electronic structure of single DNA molecules. The nanotech community has an opportunity to shape public opinion about the nanotech industry. http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/market-service-segment.pag?Src=RSS&segid=D784-00-95-00-00 Fri, 21 Mar 2008 22:43:19 +0000 http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/market-service-segment.pag?Src=RSS&segid=D784-00-95-00-00 Technical Insights Alert Sensor Technology Alert.
