More Colorful Displays with Quantum Dots Nanocrystals improve the efficiency and color range of LCDs. New designs for materials that repel all liquids. An artificial scaffold helps engineered heart cells better mimic real ones. Vibrating Cells Disclose Their Ailments MIT researchers gauge the progress of malaria using a novel imaging technique. Living Legos can be directed to form tissue-like structures. A nanowire membrane that sops up oil while repelling water could be used for cleaning up oil spills. New publications, experiments and breakthroughs in nanotechnology--and what they mean. MIT researchers have invented a microfluidic way to efficiently make particles with exquisite internal structure. A new way to fabricate nanomaterials could mean batteries and solar cells woven into clothing. Easier Detection of Explosives A new substance could be used in portable sensors to reveal traces of explosives. Atomic Design of Superstrong Materials A new computer model could significantly advance nanoscale engineering. Tiny fibers will save lives by stopping bleeding and aiding recovery from brain injury, says Rutledge Ellis-Behnke. Researchers aim to cut carbon-dioxide emissions by shedding light on the nanostructure of cement. [1]
