Bionanotechnology, Nanobiotechnology, and Nanobiology are phrases that apply to the intersection of biology and nanotechnology. Given that the topic is one that has just emerged quite recently, bionanotechnology and nanobiotechnology function as blanket terms for various associated technologies.

Nanobiology, as an area of research, implies the incorporation of biological analysis with nanotechnologies such as nanoparticles, nanodevices, or one-of-a-kind nanoscale aspects. However molecular practitioners have been working with tiny biomolecules for the past couple of decades, Nanobiology wasn’t defined as a subject until researchers began making a concentrated effort to use our understanding of nanotechnology to tackle biological issues.

New Nanotechnology Improves Fabrication For Electronic Products

Leave a comment

Fabrication involves manufacturing or developing processes to make electronic products and other related components. The fabrication process is usually complicated and costly, now there is hope that nanotechnology in electronics can help lower cost.

However, the demand for electronic devices continues to grow to imply the need for improved methods of development.

Against this background, the researchers at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) have discovered a new fabricating process in the production of semiconductors. The fabrication process is efficient, and it also has many other benefits.

Apart from silicon, there are also other materials that are useful in the development of semiconductors. These materials can also improve the performance of various electronic devices.

The new fabrication method is called I-MacEtch also known as the inverse metal-assisted chemical etching process.  The new method comes against the background of rising demand for …

Nanotech To Boost Capabilities of Agriculture Drones

Leave a comment

There is a more practical, accessible, and fun side to this nanotech world. Nanotechnology is being used in the drone/UAV industry to expand capabilities and reduce costs.

According to BestDroneForTheJob, drones and UAVs are being used today to increase productivity and reduce costs in a variety of industries including mining, real estate, agriculture, and aerial surveying. 

When people think of the intersection between nanotech and drones, they probably picture tiny little devices flying around like bugs on battlegrounds or running around your body –  like mechanical mosquitoes injecting into your bloodstream. This thinking is mostly still sci-fi used to scare people.

In the real world, nanotech is being used far more widely in the drone industry to reduce weight, to extend flight times and to make these useful robot helpers work harder – for us.

Recent Developments In Nanotechnology And Wireless Electronics For Retinal Prosthesis

Leave a comment

Retina implant technology attempts to restore the function of the light-activated cells found in the retina by implanting microelectronics and microchip electrodes surgically into the retina.

Nanovision Biosciences Inc. a start up based in La Jolla recently collaborated with engineers from the University of California San Diego with the aims of advancing research on restoring the ability of damaged neurons on the retina to respond to light.
