NanoWired GmbH, Germany

The NanoWired process is a galvanic process that uses a nanoporous filter film to generate the structure. The components must be prepared, then the intended areas are coated with nanowires using our galvanic NanoWired process. Finally, the additional layers used in the process are removed. This proc more

• A new, highly sensitive chemical sensor uses protein nanowires
  

  Writing in the journal NanoResearch, a team at the University of Massachusetts Amherst reports that they have developed bioelectronic ammonia gas sensors that are among the most sensitive ever made. The sensor uses electric-charge-conducting protein nanowires derived from the bacterium Geobacter to more

• Breakthrough on the way to photonic computing
  

  For the past 50 years, researchers around the globe have been looking for a way to make lasers with silicon or germanium. A team from the Technical University of Eindhoven (TU/e) and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has now succeeded in developing a light-emitting, silicon-germanium alloy. A more

• New green technology generates electricity 'out of thin air'
  

  Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have developed a device that uses a natural protein to create electricity from moisture in the air, a new technology they say could have significant implications for the future of renewable energy, climate change and in the future of medicine. As more

• In-Situ Spectroscopic Studies for One-Pot Synthesis of Composition-Controlled Cu-Ni Nanowires with Enhanced Catalytic Activity

  Here, an alcohol reduction method for preparing composition controlled Cu-Ni nanowires(NWs) in high yields is proposed through the selection of an appropriate combination of the metallic precursors, alcohol type and, surfactant. Also, the mechanism of NW formation was elucidated using morphological, more
