Field Effect Transistors: Ionic‐Liquid Gating of InAs Nanowire‐Based Field‐Effect Transistors

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Jan 17, 2019 | Home slide, News

In an article on Advanced Functional Materials scientific journal, Francesco Rossella and co‐workers at NEST Laboratory describe a single n‐type InAs nanowire, electrically contacted, which is surrounded by an ionic liquid – a neutral ensemble of positive and negative...

3D electron diffraction revealed a new nanocrystalline form of calcium carbonate.

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Dec 18, 2018 | Home slide, News

An international team made of Hungarian, Austrian and Italian researchers discovered a new natural form of CaCO3, a well-known formula already associated with three polymorphic minerals: calcite, aragonite and vaterite. The new form was sampled in the first...

Esposizione a nanomateriali nei luoghi di lavoro: la metodologia Nanolabel

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Oct 9, 2018 | Home slide, News

Esposizione a nanomateriali nei luoghi di lavoro: la metodologia Nanolabel Il volume “Esposizione a nanomateriali nei luoghi di lavoro” illustra una metodologia innovativa, basata su un approccio semi-quantitativo e multi-parametrico, per la valutazione, gestione e...

Static electric field suppresses superconductivity!

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Aug 1, 2018 | Home slide, News

Current-voltage (I −V) characteristics of a Ti supercurrent FET measured at 5 mK for several values of the applied gate voltage Vg (the hatched area is a guide to the eye emphasizing the monotonic suppression of the critical current Ic down to zero by increasing |Vg|....
Continuous-wave highly-efficient low-divergence terahertz wire lasers

Continuous-wave highly-efficient low-divergence terahertz wire lasers

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Mar 27, 2018 | Home slide, News

Terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) have undergone rapid development since their demonstration, showing high power, broad-tunability, quantum-limited linewidth, and ultra-broadband gain. Typically, to address applications needs, continuous-wave (CW)...
Safety and nanotechnology: a new paper from NEST!

Safety and nanotechnology: a new paper from NEST!

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Feb 1, 2018 | Home slide, News

With the increasing interest in the potential benefits of nanotechnologies, concern is still growing that they may present emerging risks for workers. Various strategies have been developed to assess the exposure to nano-objects and their agglomerates and aggregates...
