<p>Australian Institute for  Bioengineering and Nanotechnology Professor Justin  Cooper-White has spent a week sharing ideas with US defence force  researchers in Washington DC.  </p>
<p>    Prof    Cooper-White represented the Australian National Fabrication    Facility Queensland node (ANFF-Q) as director and was among    more than 30 leading Australian researchers at the week-long    review program.  </p>
<p>    The program aimed to identify areas of collaboration in micro-    and nanofabrication, with researchers sharing ideas in    high-temperature and lightweight materials, smart sensing,    nanoelectronics and data management.  </p>
<p>    The meeting was very well organised, Prof Cooper-White said.  </p>
<p>    I was impressed by the attendance of very high-profile    personnel from the US Air Force Office of Scientific Research,    Army Research Laboratory, Air Force Research Laboratory, Naval    Research Laboratory, National Science Foundation and National    Institutes of Health, exemplifying the commitment of the    significant research powerhouses in the US to forging new ties    with leading Australian researchers and institutions.  </p>
<p>    I was buoyed by the significant activity under way in these    laboratories in biosensors and diagnostics, organic electronics    and photonics, nanoelectronics, robotics, biofuel cells and    regenerative medicine  areas that are highly aligned with    research at AIBN and ANFF-Q.  </p>
<p>    It was an open forum for exchange of ideas and discussions on    research challenges and opportunities for co-operation and    exchange of researchers between Australia and the US.  </p>
<p>    Prof Cooper-White said ANFF infrastructure put Australian    researchers in a good position to underpin collaborations in    micro- and nanofabrication.  </p>
<p>    Australia&#8217;s ambassador to the US, Kim Beazley, welcomed    the Australian researchers ahead of the meetings, saying    international collaboration was important for Australian    scientists.  </p>
<p>    We have some unique capabilities and some of the smartest    people in the world, Mr Beazley said. But the truth is that    no country  not even one the size of the US  can be    self-sufficient in science in the 21st century.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>
<p>    For most manufacturers, cracks are usually something to be    avoided  and the semiconductor industry is no exception. But    now physicists in South Korea have shown how initiating and    then controlling the spread of nanometre-sized cracks can be    used to create pre-designed patterns in a silicon wafer. They    say that their approach offers a potentially faster and cheaper    alternative to conventional lithography for the fabrication of    integrated circuits.  </p>
<p>    Cracks can form when two materials with mismatching crystalline    structures are placed on top of one another. Stress builds up    at the interface between the materials, deforming the crystal    structures and creating a crack that spreads throughout both    materials if the deformity builds up enough potential energy to    break atomic or molecular bonds. This can happen when a thin    layer of silicon nitride is deposited on a silicon substrate,    with cracks spreading uncontrollably through one or both of the    layers.  </p>
<p>    Koo Hyun Nam of the Ewha Womans University in Seoul and    colleagues have controlled the formation of such cracks to    create elaborate patterns within a silicon substrate. To do    this they etched tiny structures at particular positions and    with specific orientations within 0.5mm-thick silicon    wafers. The idea was that these &#8220;micro-notches&#8221; would    concentrate the stress resulting from the deposition of a thin    film of silicon nitride on the substrate. They also carved out    step-like structures within the substrate to halt the spread of    cracks or to isolate certain regions of the wafer from cracks.  </p>
<p>    Using chemical vapour deposition to lay down the silicon    nitride, Nam and co-workers found that the cracks formed and    propagated spontaneously. They were able to make the cracks    either straight or wavy by changing the orientation of the    crystal planes in the wafers as well as adjusting other    parameters such as the temperature and pressure of the vapour.    By laying down a film of silicon dioxide between the substrate    and the silicon nitride they were able to generate a third    shape  &#8220;stitch-like&#8221; cracks, which are straight cracks with    short, parallel, angled branches.  </p>
<p>    The width of the cracks varied between about 10120nm,    with the wavelike variety generally wider than the straight    cracks. In addition, the researchers found that they could    change the direction of a crack, causing it to &#8220;refract&#8221; much    like a light wave passing into and then out of a block of    glass, by separating only a part of the wafer and the silicon    nitride with the silicon-dioxide film. Where there was no    silicon dioxide, the crack penetrated more deeply into the    silicon substrate and aligned itself more closely with the    substrate&#8217;s atomic planes, whereas this alignment was weaker    where there was silicon dioxide, causing the crack to change    direction in this region.  </p>
<p>    Writing in     Nature, Nam&#8217;s team says that this method of    controlled cracking could offer a faster and cheaper    alternative to conventional lithography for microchip    fabrication. In an accompanying article, Antonio Pons of the    Polytechnic University of Catalonia in Barcelona, Spain,    agrees. He says that lithography, which allows patterns to be    etched in silicon using a mask created via beams of light,    electrons or ions, is often complex, expensive and    time-consuming.  </p>
<p>    Pons told physicsworld.com that the advantage of the new    approach is that the time needed to form the pattern &#8220;is simply    the time taken for the crack to propagate&#8221;, estimating that it    should take only a few hours altogether to prepare the    substrate, deposit the film and create the pattern, compared    with the &#8220;days or weeks&#8221; needed using standard lithography. He    admits, however, that he does not know how long it would take    to make the micro-notches and other features. He also says it    remains unclear how closely the cracks can be positioned to one    another, something, he points out, &#8220;that is crucial when making    small structures&#8221;.  </p>
<p>    But Pons believes that the new technique should also find    applications beyond the semiconductor industry. One    possibility, he says, is making microfluidic devices. These are    networks of tiny channels within which fluids, containing    molecules such as DNA, can be manipulated for study. He also    wonders whether it might prove useful at larger scales, perhaps    allowing buildings in earthquake zones to fracture more safely.    &#8220;The answer to that is not necessarily yes,&#8221; he says. &#8220;Scale is    very important, and we would be going from atomic-level    interactions to the size of a house. But maybe this work will    inspire people in other fields.&#8221;  </p>
<p>    Zhenan Bao, a chemist at Stanford University in the US, says    that the strength of the latest work is in showing the    formation of controlled cracking, pointing out that other    groups have previously used cracks to create nanoscale    patterns, but that they were not able to carefully control    where the cracks formed. Bao cautions, however, that such    controlled cracking would only be possible with certain    combinations of materials, which may mean the technique has    more limited appeal than standard lithography. &#8220;It would be    nice to see a demonstration of this method for device    application,&#8221; she adds.  </p>

<p>    NAPLES, Fla.&#8211;(BUSINESS WIRE)&#8211;  </p>
<p>    Industrial    Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets:INTK), an emerging global    leader in nanotechnology based energy saving and sustainable    solutions announced today that the Company is opening a Corporate    Sales Office in India with the next 4-6 weeks.    Industrial Nanotech, Inc. has seen significantly increased    demand in India for their Nansulate energy saving and    protective coatings from OEM manufacturers as well as end    manufacturing users to reduce energy costs. The company plans    to establish an office first in Southern India, in or near    Bangalore, with expansion to Northern India and Western India    in the near future.  </p>
<p>    India has become an increasingly important country as their    manufacturing sectors and economy as a whole continue to have a    healthy growth rate, stated Francesca Crolley, VP of Business    Development for Industrial Nanotech, Inc. We began a strategy    this year focused on boosting our marketing and brand presence    in India as an energy saving solution and it has returned    significant results. These include multiple inquiries from    manufacturers that want to use Nansulate coatings for    insulation of their equipment for energy savings and surface    temperature reduction, as well as a meeting with a leading OEM    manufacturer of process cooling systems with 14 locations    throughout India, and an international client base, that is    interested in incorporating our technology into the process    cooling systems they manufacture and sell. We have seen our    marketing, which was focused on commercial and industrial,    bring in sales and inquiries from multiple markets and at such    a response level that it was obvious to us that setting up an    Industrial Nanotech, Inc. office in India, staffed by a sales    and technical support team which we hire and train, was the    logical next step. The availability of a well educated    workforce with an excellent work ethic presents a tremendous    opportunity for the Company and will allow us to both    accommodate factory visit requests from around the country with    our own technical teams, as we do in the US, and the ability to    more rapidly service and grow this vital market.  </p>
<p>    India&#8217;s economic growth is expected to remain robust in 2012    and 2013, despite likely headwind of double-dip recessions in    Europe and the US, according to a United Nations&#8217; annual    economic report &#8211; World Economic Situation and Prospects 2012.    The Indian economy is expected to grow between 7.7 per cent and    7.9 per cent this year, as per the report. India is the second    most preferred destination for foreign investors, according to    the report &#8216;Doing Business in India&#8217; by Ernst &#038; Young. The    report explores India&#8217;s key sectors, investment climate,    funding scenario, laws and regulations, to aid companies that    are doing, or plan to do business in India.  </p>

<p>    A nanotechnology system that will allow sailors on Navy    submarines to breathe easy has won Pacific Northwest National    Laboratory a national award.  </p>
<p>    The 2012 Federal Laboratory Consortium Interagency Partnership    Award was given to the Department of Energy national lab in    Richland.  </p>
<p>    Researchers created a system that captures carbon dioxide    directly from the air within a submarine to improve air    quality, while providing a more environmentally friendly    removal process.  </p>
<p>    The technology &#8212; self assembled monolayers on mesoporous    supports or SAMMS &#8212; can be used to replace a system relied on    for more than half a century by the U.S. Navy and many other    countries.  </p>
<p>    The current system is a bulky, heavy, corrosive and malodorous    liquid process that produces a significant amount of organic    solvent waste, according to PNNL.  </p>
<p>    &#8220;This is a new application of a technology that was previously    developed by PNNL to remove heavy metal contamination from    ground and surface waters found at many DOE waste sites,&#8221; PNNL    material scientist Glen Fryxell, one of the key inventors of    the SAMMS technology, said in a statement.  </p>
<p>    The SAMMS materials can absorb large quantities of liquid and    airborne contaminants without creating secondary waste and can    be disposed of as nonhazardous waste.  </p>
<p>    The SAMMS technology is based on a new class of hybrid    nanoporous materials that can rapidly capture contaminants such    as carbon dioxide, mercury or arsenic directly from the    atmosphere or liquid environments.  </p>
<p>    For air rejuvenation systems, SAMMS can provide a controlled    release of the carbon dioxide using a gentle application of    heat or vacuum, according to PNNL.  </p>
<p>    &#8220;The technology could open doors to other large-scale or    small-scale air quality treatments,&#8221; Fryxell said.  </p>

<p>Category: Science    &#038; Technology    Posted: May 11, 2012 09:40AM    Author: Guest_Jim_*             </p>
<p>      Whoever first had the idea for the lithography system used to      produce modern integrated circuits, probably did not think      their invention would be used to clean a person&#8217;s blood. As      reported by the American Institute of Physics,      researchers at MIT and the National University of Singapore      have created a device that cleans infections from the blood.      The key was using margination, a natural phenomenon that      separates parts of the blood.    </p>
<p>      As your blood flows through your blood vessels, white blood      cells and bacteria move towards the wall of the vessel, while      the red blood cells flow through the middle. The researchers      decided to try making a device that replicates this effect.      By etching microfluidic channels just 20 micrometers      (millionths of a meter: m) by 20 m into a polymer chip, the      researchers successfully removed at least 80% of the E. coli      bacteria, yeast, and other inflammatory components from a      blood sample.    </p>
<p>      Potentially this technology could be used to treat sepsis, a      dangerous and systemic inflammatory response to blood      infections. First small-scale in vivo animal tests have to be      successful, but this is definitely a promising and      interesting way to clean ones blood.    </p>

<p>  US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) draft guidance on the use  of nanotechnology in food and food contact substances represents  only marginal progress towards regulation of the  technology, a petition group has claimed.</p>
<p>    In response to the FDA guidance, the Center for Food Safety    (CFS), Friends of the Earth (FoE), the Institute for    Agriculture and Trade Policy (LATP) and the International    Center for Technology Assessment (ICTA) have called for the    introduction of further regulations to cover the food sectors    use of the technology.  </p>
<p>    The FDA document pinpointed factors that should be considered    when trying to determine whether changes in manufacturing    process, such as the intentional reduction in particle size to    the nanoscale, can affect the safety of food.  </p>
<p>    Once finalised, Draft Guidance for Industry: Assessment the    Effects of Significant Manufacturing Process Changes, Including    Emerging Technologies, on the Safety and Regulatory Status of    Food Ingredients and Food Contact Substances, Including Food    Ingredients that are Colour Additives will represent the    FDAs current thinking on the topic.  </p>
<p>    The Center for Food Safety (CFS), which campaigns against    harmful food production technology, has urged the FDA to issue    more than just voluntary guidance on the issue.  </p>
<p>    Marginal progress  </p>
<p>    The campaigners, which are all currently working on    nanotechnology oversight, have called on the FDA to further the    so-far marginal progress toward regulation of products made    with this new technology.  </p>
<p>    The draft guidance followed a lawsuit filed in December 2011 by    the group, regarding the FDAs failure to respond to their 2006    petition. The FDA responded to the groups lawsuit in April    2012.  </p>
<p>    In its formal response to the groups lawsuit, FDA    acknowledged that there are differences between nanomaterials    and their bulk counterparts, and the nanomaterials have    potential new risks and may require new testing, said the    groups statement.  </p>
<p>    However, the agency declined to enact mandatory regulations    at this time.  </p>

<p>    In his visit to Albany Tuesday, President Barack Obama    highlighted the nanotechnology initiatives in Upstate New York    as the foundation for a new era in American manufacturing.  </p>
<p>    He spoke at the Albany College of Nanoscale Science and    Engineering, which is partnering with SUNYIT in Marcy to make    New York a center for computer technology businesses and    research.  </p>
<p>    The reason I came here today is because this school and this    community represent the future of our economy, Obama said.    Right now, some of the most advanced manufacturing work in    America is being done right here in Upstate New York.    Cutting-edge businesses from all over the world are deciding to    build here and hire here.  </p>
<p>    Click     here for entire speech.  </p>
<p>    SUNYIT President Wolf Yeigh, who attended the event, said Obama    had hit it right on.  </p>
<p>    He said bring these outsourced jobs back to America, and it is    happening right there in Albany, Yeigh said. He mentioned    that semiconductors are the next wave of American greatness.    The Mohawk Valley is poised to be on that wave.  </p>
<p>    Albany&#8217;s nanotechnology sector was jump-started in the    mid-1990s, as state dollars were poured into the College of    Nanoscale Science and Engineering. It has been growing ever    since.  </p>
<p>    SUNYIT was brought into the mix in 2009, when state Assembly    Speaker Sheldon Silver and other state officials announced $45    million to create a Computer Chip Commercialization Center and    Center for Advanced technology.  </p>
<p>    Then, in September of 2011, $4.4 billion in government and    private sector investments in nanotechnology statewide were    announced. SUNYIT also is set to gain from that windfall.  </p>
<p>    All told, more than 900 jobs, many of them well paid, are    expected to land in the Mohawk Valley, officials have said.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>
<p>      DUBLIN&#8211;(BUSINESS WIRE)&#8211;    </p>
<p>      Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ths3db/nanotechnology_for)      has announced the addition of the       &#8220;Nanotechnology for Drug Delivery: Global Market for      Nanocrystals&#8221; report to their offering.    </p>
<p>      Nanocrystals will account for 60% of      a $136 billion nanotechnology-enabled drug delivery market      by 2021. We forecast the total market size in 2021 to be      US$136 billion, with a 60/40 split between nanocrystals and      nanocarriers respectively.    </p>
<p>      Since we now understand that most (if not all) biological      processes occur at the nanoscale, the application of life      science principles &#8211; studying the causes of biological      phenomena at the molecular level &#8211; means that medical and      biomedical      research is increasingly using a bottom-up (rather      than the top-down) approach.    </p>
<p>      The healthcare market is changing. The author is seeing a      paradigm shift away from blockbusters and a one-size fits      all&#8217; approach to a more personalised medicine based on an      individual&#8217;s unique genome and immune response. The more      scientists learn about the molecular causes for disease the      more targeted and effective nanotechnology-enabled drug      delivery therapies will become.    </p>
<p>      Nanocrystals will outperform nanocarriers by 20%    </p>
<p>      Nanocrystal-based drugs showed the highest market growth in      the last decade compared to other nanotechnology-enabled drug      delivery systems studied, according to Cientifica Ltd.&#8217;s      latest research. This is largely due to the shorter      development times and smaller investment needed to create      nanocrystals. The report presents a detailed discussion of      recent developments (2000-2010) in nanocrystal therapies and      future opportunities (2011-2021).    </p>
<p>      The low bioavailability resulting from traditional oral (both      tablet and liquid) drug delivery methods and the market      forces at work in the pharmaceutical industry &#8211; where patents      expire after a relatively short period of time unless a novel      form of drug delivery is developed that will extend the      patent &#8211; are two major forces that will fuel the growth of      the nanotech enabled drug delivery market, said Harper.    </p>
<p>      The National Science Foundation has forecast the global      nanotech-enabled market will reach US$1 trillion by 2015,      while the National Nanotechnology Initiative predicts it will      reach US$3 trillion by 2020. Drug nanocrystals would      therefore account for approximately 2.5% of the total global      nanotechnology market in 2015 and      3.5% in 2021.    </p>

<p>      Pakistan&#8217;s spike in nanotech research publications has been      hit by funds crunch.    </p>
<p>      Flickr/nic221    </p>
<p>    [KARACHI] Nanotechnology    research in Pakistan, which had shown a trend of    higher publication numbers over the last decade, has suffered    from the countrys present financial crisis, a study    said.  </p>
<p>      In 2008 the government did not extend the term of the      National Commission for Nanoscience and Technology, initially      set up in 2003 for three years and later extended for two      more years.    </p>
<p>    The study, published online on 29 March in    Scientometrics, said research     publications in the field had grown from seven in 2000 to    an impressive 542 papers in 2011, registering a 29 per cent    annual growth rate.  </p>
<p>    This is higher than the average annual growth rate of 23    per cent registered globally, said Rizwan Sarwar Bajwa,    research associate at the Preston Institute of Nanoscience and    Technology in Islamabad who, together with his    colleague Khwaja Yaldram, had carried out the study.  </p>
<p>    Much of the contribution came from 13 universities while    only two state-owned research    and development institutions in the country participated in    nanoscience and nanotechnology research.  </p>
<p>    The study attributed the spurt in research and    publications to heavy government spending on manpower training    and procuring the latest equipment for laboratories working in    the field.  </p>
<p>    &#8220;Unfortunately, the present financial crunch faced by the    country could have a negative impact on the progress achieved    so far,&#8221; the study concluded.  </p>
<p>    &#8220;The publication shows that despite availability of    funding, the research and development institutes contributed    very little in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology,&#8221;    Bajwa, lead author of the study, told    SciDev.Net.  </p>

<p>President Barack Obama at the White House May 3, 2012.    UPI/Olivier Douliery/Pool    </p>
<p>            License photo    </p>
<p>    ALBANY, N.Y., May 4 (UPI) &#8212;    President Barack Obama will    discuss an emerging U.S. innovation economy at a nanotechnology    development and education center, the White House said late    Friday.  </p>
<p>    Obama is to travel Tuesday to a $14 billion,    800,000-square-foot NanoTech Complex at the State University of    New York&#8217;s College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering on the    campus of the University at Albany, the White House said in a    statement, changing earlier plans.  </p>
<p>    Obama was to have gone to a nearly completed $4.6 billion    GlobalFoundries Inc. computer chip plant about 20 miles from    Albany, but switched &#8220;due to logistical reasons,&#8221; the White    House statement said Friday.  </p>
<p>    The college is closer to Albany International Airport than the    chip-making plant and has better parking and a larger space for    public events, said GlobalFoundries, which met with a White    House advance team the past two days.  </p>
<p>    GlobalFoundries, which is test-manufacturing computer chips and    expects to be fully operational this summer, is also still    considered an active construction site, said the Milpitas,    Calif., company.  </p>
<p>    &#8220;It&#8217;s a massive undertaking and they want to have the right    accommodations,&#8221; company spokesman Travis Bullard told The    (Saratoga Springs) Saratogian.  </p>
<p>    Representatives of GlobalFoundries &#8212; formerly part of Advanced    Micro Devices Inc., the world&#8217;s second-largest producer of    computer chips &#8212; &#8220;will join the president at CNSE,&#8221; the White    House statement said.  </p>
<p>    About 50 of GlobalFoundries&#8217; 1,300 local employees work at CNSE    in research roles, Bullard told the newspaper.  </p>

<p>    Local officials along with some 100 area educators and members    of the public attended a nanotechnology forum at SUNYIT    Thursday afternoon.    The forum addressed aspects of nanotechnology for the business    community as well as educators who teach anything from    kindergarten to college classes.    These forms are very vital for our work force and our    educators, said Assemblyman Anthony Brindisi, D &#8211; Utica. We    want to make sure, that going forward; we have a work force    that is well trained and ready to meet these job demands.    SUNYIT President Bjong Wolf Yeigh asked those who attended the    forum to try to formulate a plan as to how the Mohawk Valley    can embrace nanofever.    Build it and the people will come, said Bill Gaetano, of    Gaetano Construction in Utica, referring to the planned Marcy    NanoCenter. Its a great opportunity for our students.  </p>

Nanotechnology is a cross-sectional technology that, on the one hand, serves many different sectors of industry and, on the other hand, relies on competencies and supplier services from these sectors. Saxony is characterized by a tight network of producing industries and suppliers that give impetus to the development and economic use of nanotechnologies and open up new channels. Thus, nano experts benefit from close exchange with the electronics, mechanical engineering and plant construction industrial sectors, which are particularly strong between Chemnitz, Dresden and Freiberg. A unique concentration of commercial enterprises providing extensive knowledge and expertise in the sectors microelectronics and nanoelectronics, photovoltaics, organic &#038; printed electronics, energy?efficient systems, telecommunications technology, and integrated sensor technology is found in Saxony. Grow further. A fruitful combination of American pioneering spirit and Saxon renovative power resulted in the first application of truly large scale.</p>
