Sep 28, 2019 (Nanowerk News) Physicists and materials scientists from Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU) found out the structures in nanomaterials made of ceramic and graphene plates, in which cracks appear most frequently. The results of the first trial of the model, that describes the found regularity, were...

Home > Press > Tiny, biocompatible laser could function inside living tissues: Nanolaser has potential to treat neurological disorders or sense disease biomarkersAbstract:Nanolaser is smaller, more stable and driven at much lower powers than existing small lasersMade from intrinsically biocompatible glass, it can absorb shorter and longer wavelengths of lightResearchers...
Giant exoplanet around tiny star challenges understanding of how planets form
Sep 27, 2019 (Nanowerk News) An international team of researchers has discovered the first large gas giant orbiting a small star. The planet was found orbiting the nearby red dwarf star GJ 3512. This discovery challenges scientists' very understanding of how planets form: low-mass stars should have less available material...
