Title |
Graphene-Magnet Multilayers for
Spintronic Devices |
Summary |
Describes the use of magnetism to manipulate
the quantum spin of electrons to generate additional
current. |
Competitive
Advantage |
Circumvents the
current fundamental technological limitations of size and
efficiency of electronic devices that are based on
manipulating electronic charge. |
Applications |
Includes
spintronic devices such as (re-)writable microchips,
transistors and logic gates. This process can be adapted to
create active, re-writable and re-configurable spintronic
devices whose function changes depending on the
magnetization pattern written on the magnetic medium. |

Title |
Electro Pen
Nanolithography |
Summary |
Pen using electrical signal to write lines
of "ink" only a few tens of nanometers, in width. Lines Can
be formed into 3D patterns. |
Competitive
Advantage |
Multilayered three-dimensional nanoscale
patterns can be produced by simply writing over existing
patterns. |
Applications |
In nanotechnologies that involve nano
patterning such as molecular electronics and biosensors. |

Title |
Generation of Janus Type Nanoparticles |
Summary |
Describes an
approach to assemble nanomaterials at a colloidal substrate
in a layer by layer fashion with biomolecules governing the
interaction between the layers. This biomolecule-driven
nano-assembly platform using encoded solid supports helps
the construction of modular nanosystems with complex
architectures. In addition, the proposed approach
allows fabrication of Janus-type constructions |
Competitive
Advantage |
The system is
simple, modular and allows high throughput fabrication.
The assembly is economical and can be performed in aqueous
solution without strenuous environmental controls and
laborious purification steps. |
Applications |
Generation of a
broad range of nanoparticle monomers with controlled
anisotropy which can be used in a number of applications
including targeted drug delivery, microsensor systems,
stabilizers of complex media, and nanocomponents in smart
displays. |

Title |
Assembly of 2D and 3D DNA-Based
Nanosystems |
Summary |
Describes using DNA
as a platform to tailor inter-object attraction and
repulsion to generate 2D and 3D DNA-guided micro and
nanoparticle assemblies. The DNA-based nanosystems
formed may have non-close packed structures. |
Competitive
Advantage |
The technology
offers unlimited ability to fabricate three-dimensional
structures with controllable order and particle-particle
distance. In addition, the rate and degree of assembly
and aggregation can be controlled. |
Applications |
Generation of a
broad range of precisely ordered novel 3D body-centered
cubic (BCC) crystalline metamaterials for use in optical,
magnetic, and medical applications. |
