Polymeric Nanowire Architectures and Nanodevices

Liu H., Kameoka J., Verbridge S., Craighead H.G., Cornell University, US

We devised a method, named as scanned electrospinning technique, to form a variety of one-dimensional polymeric nanostructures. It is a straightforward technique that enables the rapid fabrication of oriented polymeric nanowires as well as their [...]

Nanomechanical Sensor Platform Based On Piezo-Resistive Cantilevers

Thaysen J., Havsteen Jacobsen M., Kildemark Nielsen L., Cantion A/S, DK

Cantion has developed a piezo-resistive cantilever sensor for the detection of molecular interactions. The Cantion technology has been used for the detection of plastic explosives, DNA and proteins. The small sensor and readout footprint makes [...]
