Bowen E., Purser F., Park Y.B., Lee J.S., Kwon S., Utah State University, US

Recent discoveries of various forms of carbon nanostructure have stimulated researches on their applications and hold promise for applications in medicine and many other related engineering areas. While carbon nanotubes (CNT’s) are already being produced [...]

Magnetotransport Properties and Tunnel Effect of Thin Film Nano-Structures

Neamtu J., Volmer M., Medianu R.V., National Institute for Research&Development in Electrical Engineering, RO

The investigation of magnetotransport and tunnel effect of magnetic nanostructures plays an important role in design of micro&nanosystems for spintronics. The nano-structures as FM/NM/FM/AFM were deposited by magnetron-sputtering on the oxidized Si wafers, as continuous [...]

Nano hetero nuclear fuel structure

Popa-Simil L., LAVM, Inc., US

The direct energy conversion of nuclear energy requires nano-structured nuclear fuel. The principle of the radiation energy direct conversion is the usage of the knock-on electrons produced by the moving particle interaction with the lattice. [...]

Nano-Hetero Structure for direct energy conversion

Popa-Simil L., LAVM, Inc., US

The direct conversion of nuclear energy becomes possible in hetero-nanostructures. To convert the kinetic energy of the fission product into electricity it has to be created a nanostructure formed from a repetitive conductor-insulator structure generically [...]
