High-voltage nanofibre production, using very high voltages of up to 120,000 volts, is a principle that has been known for a long time. Naturally, there is inherently a high risk of injury if equipment operators handle the high voltage electrodes or

2013. november 27-én ünnepli alapításának hatodik évfordulóját a NanoTudomány Nemzetközi Közössége (The International NanoScience Community – www.nanopaprika.eu). A közel 6700 kutatót és diákot tömörítő tudományos közösségi hálózatot dr. Paszternák A

Abstract: The effects of nanoparticles (nanoclay and nanosilicon dioxide) on heat sealability, physicochemical, barrier, and mechanical properties of starch films were investigated. Starch films

• What can happen when graphene meets a semiconductor
• Researchers integrate single-crystal BFO onto a silicon chip, open door to smart devices
• Infrared vision lets researchers see through — and into — multiple layers of graphene

The Bleiner group (www.iap.unibe.ch) at the University of Bern (Switzerland) runs plasma-based sources of coherent and incoherent shortwavelength radiation ("XUV") for micro/nano-scale imaging. Within the COST Action MP1208 (www.cost.eu) the group ha
