View Details Commercializing Quantum Dots for Display Applications: A Conversation with Jason Hartlove In this episode of the Nano Entrepreneurship Network podcast, Jason Hartlove, CEO of Nanosys, describes the technology development pathway that Nanosys followed to commercialize quantum dots for display applications. View Details Team demonstrates rare form of ferroelectricity in ultra-thin material Researchers have demonstrated that a 2D material, called molybdenum disulfide, has a long-theorized property that could help computers, phones, and other microelectronics save both power and their electrical states, even after being turned off. View Details Nanoclusters self-organize into hierarchical assemblies Researchers have created synthetic nanoclusters that can mimic the type of hierarchical self-assembly found in DNA molecules and photonic crystals all the way from the nanometer to the centimeter scale. View Details Inspired by prehistoric creatures, researchers make record-setting lenses Inspired by the eyes of distant cousins of horseshoe crabs, researchers have developed a miniature camera composed of an array of ultrathin films imprinted with groupings of nanoscale pillars tailored to manipulate light in specific ways.
