In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers have shown that nanoparticles may have a bigger impact on the environment than previously thought. This is the first report of non-antibacterial nanoparticles causing resistance in bacteria.

Article ID: 720169

A team of researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology has developed a new process that could help gain new insights into individual high-entropy alloys and help characterize their properties.

Article ID: 720036

In the latest issue of Science, a team of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researchers describe a breakthrough in nanoscale 3D printing, developing a scalable method of nanofabrication up to 1,000 times faster than any previous method has accomplished, without sacrificing resolution, potentially opening the door to cost-effective, largescale 3D nanoprinting.
