Zirconium carbide nanoparticles trigger crystal-structure changes that make brittle ceramic matrix composites stronger and ...

An international research team has developed amino acid-derived nanoparticles that first block a cancer cell drug-efflux pump ...

Precision medicine aims to transport therapeutic agents, such as molecules, proteins or RNA, to the exact place where they ...

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are nanoscale particles of gold, typically ranging in size from 1 to 100 nanometers (nm). These nanoparticles exhibit unique physical, chemical, and optical properties that ...

Technologies based on nanoscale materials – for example, particles that are more than 10,000 times smaller than the period at the end of this sentence – play a growing role in our world.

When inorganic nanoparticles come together, their optical, electronic, and magnetic properties depend strongly on how they ...

Such structures are able to recognize individual molecules, which opens up opportunities for detecting impurities in ...
