Chemists print sensors for nano-objects

The optical nanosensors' operating principle is based on the interaction of light in thin films: a similar effect can be observed in soap bubbles. Such sensors can be quickly manufactured using an inkjet printer and special ink made of titanium dioxide.

How to catch a magnetic monopole in the act

A research team has created a nanoscale 'playground' on a chip that simulates the formation of exotic magnetic particles called 'monopoles'. The study could unlock the secrets to ever-smaller, more powerful memory devices, microelectronics, and next-generation hard drives that employ the power of magnetic spin to store data.
