Read The Nanotech IPO Window is Still Closed. A123 Systems was a One Time Event October 2009 - Abstract - I'm going to disappoint those nanotechnology senior executives and VC's waiting in the wings to IPO but the general market for nanotech initial public offerings is not yet open - even in the after wash of A123 Systems' spectacularly successful IPO this past month. Despite excessive "dot com era" underwriter hype of "new opportunities", the IPO market remains very tightly shut for high tech offerings that have few sales and no profits É i.e. most nanotech based companies.

From Low-Cost and Creative Tools for Learning Nanoscience and Creating Nanostructures at Schools

Grab, pattern and trim. With motivation, patience and innovation, topped with focused laser beam system and optical tweezers, one can create beautiful 3D microstructures. With the hybrid of Quantum dot and Carbon Nanotubes, multicolour microstructures can also be created beautifully. Want to grow nanoscale metal oxide with minimum cost? Just prepare a hotplate, control the environment, polish the metal substrate and heat it up. Fascinating morphologies of wide variety of metal oxides will appear. In this article, we shared our experience touring around Nanomaterials Laboratory in NUS and conversing with Prof Sow Chorng-Haur about his passion for outreach and education to young students in nanoscience via low-cost, fun and interesting methods.

From Favorsky Irkutsk Institute of Chemistry, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences

The A.E. Favorsky Irkutsk Institute of Chemistry, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IrICh) called the Irkutsk Institute of Organic Chemistry until recently, is one of the first academic institutes in the Eastern Siberia. It was founded in 1957. Professor M. F. Shostakovsky of the Moscow Institute of Organic Chemistry, Ac. Sci. USSR, Corresponding Member, Ac. Sci. USSR, was appointed first director-organizer. A close associate of Academician A. E. Favorsky (St. Petersburg, Moscow), a classic of organic chemistry, Shostakovsky laid the basis for dynamic development of the largest Russian classic chemical school - the school of Favorsky on the Siberian ground. Soon the Institute held a world lead in the chemistry of acetylene and silicon (especially, of silico-acetylenic compounds). In 2000 the Institute was given name after A.E. Favorsky.

From Nano Medical Cures Coming Closer?

In updating my website recently, I noticed that several efforts to use nanotechnology in medicine have moved from the realm of research papers to the pre-clinical or clinical testing stage. For example, CytImmune has published the preliminary results of a phase 1 clinical trial of a targeted chemotherapy treatment method. Read the Whole Article

From Self-assembly of Carbon Nanotubes into Two-Dimensional Structures and Devices and on the Verge of Carbon Nanotube Powerlines

Assembling carbon nanotubes into two dimensional structures and devices using DNA origami in a process that is scalable to billions of devices assembled in parallel. Carbon nanotubes are also being formed into fibers hundreds of meters long and if the carbon nanotubes were able to be selected to be all metallic then carbon nanotubes could be used for nearly lossless power lines.

From Journal Nanotechnology Progress International (JONPI) maiden edition synopsis; Nanofrontrunners, implications

It is expected that nanomarket will increase to about $3.7 trillion in 2015 (Research and Markets, Dublin 2008). The sales for 2008 could be as high as $200 billion according to the same Research Markets Dublin 2008. As a result of this potential in nanoscience and nanotechnology; every academia, country or government institution and private sector wants to be part of the race. Like any race; results are important as a measure of success and learning process for those that are not winning or that want to be included. Read the Whole Article
