Complex Integrated Circuits Made of Carbon Nanotubes New circuits bring low-power nanotube computers closer. Longer-Running Electric-Car Batteries Silicon-nanotube electrodes may enable lithium-ion batteries to store 10 times more charge. Stretchy, High-Quality Conductors Materials made from nanotubes could lead to conformable computers that stretch around any shape. Testing the Toxicity of Nanomaterials A fast screening method could help separate the good from the bad. Flexible, Nanowire Solar Cells Exotic materials and cheaper substrates could lead to better photovoltaics. Researchers have made analog electronics out of carbon nanotubes. Better batteries and super-sticky glues are becoming possible because of nanomaterials. Superstrong Carbon-Nanotube Fibers A new process could make nanotube fibers that are strong enough to stop bullets. E-jet printing of precise structures out of various materials could prove to be a valuable tool in nano manufacturing. Geckos and mussels inspire a better glue. Climbing Walls with Carbon Nanotubes A new kind of tape mimics the qualities of gecko feet. A Breakthrough in Nanotube Transistors High-current transistors made from perfectly aligned carbon nanotubes show promise for use in flexible and high-speed nanoelectronics. Carbon nanotubes could help make nanoparticle-based solar cells more efficient and practical. [1]
