A class of ultrasmall fluorescent core-shell silica nanoparticles developed at Cornell is showing an unexpected ability to ...

Polymer nanoparticles have been extensively studied as possible drug delivery systems because of their ability to control the discharge of drug contained within them and also because of their ...

A transmission electron microscopy image of a core–shell cubic nanoparticle. The new core-shell nanoparticles are highly versatile and are used in printing sensor arrays that measure levels of ...

Iron oxide-incorporated conjugated polymer nanoparticles, also known as conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs), are highly fluorescent particles composed of a semiconductor light-emitting polymer ...

Nanoshells are a class of nanoparticles consisting of a dielectric core surrounded by a thin metallic shell, typically made of gold or silver. The core material is usually silica or a polymer, while ...

A team of Caltech engineers has developed a technique for inkjet printing arrays of special nanoparticles that enables the mass production of long-lasting wearable sweat sensors. These sensors could ...
