Inspired by the chameleon, scientists develop a laser that changes colors

What might be so special about a very small laser that can change the color of the light it emits? Well, Illinois-based researchers based their new nanolaser on the natural ability of the chameleon to alter the coloration of its skin at the nano-scale level, an article on News Wise stated. The chameleon is best […]

Researchers have developed a new way to regenerate dental enamel

Dentists may soon be able to restore the enamel that our teeth have lost from constant wear and tear. In an article in Science Daily, British researchers announced a method that can regenerate hard tissues such as dental enamel. Enamel covers the outer part of our teeth. It is the toughest tissue in the human […]

“Smart” windows made from common glass and cheap nanocrystals

Even in energy-saving technologies, it’s a generally accepted fact that good results come with a hefty price tag. But thanks to leaps in nanotechnology, you will soon be able to use “smart” windows to minimize your energy consumption at only a fraction of the usual cost. Conventional infrared (IR)-blocking windows are made from a special kind […]

“Smart” windows made from common glass and cheap nanocrystals

Smart windows are one of the most effective and important ways to reduce the massive energy cost of buildings. However, they tend to be expensive, which precludes their widespread adoption. In a NanoWerk article, Ohio-based researchers found a way to combine ordinary glass and inexpensive nanocrystals, creating an affordable smart window that can block infrared […]
