The Hitchhikers Guide to Nanotechnology - nanotechnology discussion Scotland
Nanotechnology it's uses and challenges for business. As a topic, nanotechnology is complex, controversial and cool all at the same time and this Business Forum session aims to put it all into perspective - not by looking at future 'imagine this' or 'what if' scenarios, but at how and why emerging technologies are being put to use in all kinds of really useful products today.

Read moreContact through silver particles in ink
Conductor paths in sensor systems have to be correctly 'wired'. Now, instead of using obtrusive connecting wires, researchers print the conductor paths. The connections thus produced are thinner, and the sensor delivers more accurate measurements.
