Sheath-run artificial muscles for intelligent structures

Over the last 15 years, researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas and their international colleagues have invented several types of strong, powerful artificial muscles using materials ranging from high-tech carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to ordinary fishing line. n a new study published July 12 in the journal Science, the researchers describe their latest advance, called sheath-run artificial

Why shrink transistors any further when you could do this?

Computers and similar electronic devices have gotten faster and smaller over the decades as computer-chip makers have learned how to shrink individual transistors, the tiny electrical switches that convey digital information. Scientists’ pursuit of the smallest possible transistor has allowed more of them to be packed onto each chip. But that race to the bottom

Blocking pain where it starts

The RNA mimic that Dr. Zachary Campbell’s team designed showed the ability to reduce behavioral response to pain. For anyone who has accidentally injured themselves, Dr. Zachary Campbell not only sympathizes, he’s developing new ways to blunt pain. “If you have ever hit yourself with a hammer, afterward, even a light touch can be painful

High-tech yarns generate electricity when they are stretched or twisted

An international research team led by scientists at The University of Texas at Dallas and Hanyang University in South Korea has developed high-tech yarns that generate electricity when they are stretched or twisted. In a study published in the Aug. 25 issue of the journal Science, researchers describe “twistron” yarns and their possible applications, such as

New smart muscle textile can both support and monitor movement

ACES researchers have for the first time, developed a smart textile from carbon nanotube and spandex fibres that can both sense and move in response to a stimulus like a muscle or joint. “We have already made intelligent materials as sensors and integrated them into devices such as a knee sleeve that can be used

Smallest. Transistor. Ever. 1 nanometer long.

Berkeley Lab-led research breaks major barrier in transistor size by creating gate only 1 nanometer long For more than a decade, engineers have been eyeing the finish line in the race to shrink the size of components in integrated circuits. They knew that the laws of physics had set a 5-nanometer threshold on the size

Scientists Put a New Twist on Artificial Muscles

In recent years, researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas and colleagues at the University of Wollongong in Australia have put a high-tech twist on the ancient art of fiber spinning, using modern materials to create ultra-strong, powerful, shape-shifting yarns. In a perspective article published Sept. 26 online in the Proceedings of the National

New, non-invasive method to wipe out cancerous tumors using chemistry and light

Matthew Gdovin, an associate professor in the UTSA Department of Biology, has developed a newly patented method to kill cancer cells. His discovery, described in research published in The Journal of Clinical Oncology, may tremendously help people with inoperable or hard-to-reach tumors, as well as young children stricken with cancer. Gdovin’s top-tier research involves injecting
