When it comes to implanting material in the brain, smaller is better as small contaminants are essentially “ignored” by the body’s immune system. As such, researchers have developed a new “stealthy neural interface” made from a single carbon fiber thread only 7 micrometers wide and coated with chemicals to make it resistant to proteins in…

Scientists create super hi-res holographic images using nanotubes
Scientists say they have found a way to use carbon nanotubes to create super hi-resolution holographic images in a process that could pave the way for 3D holographic video. Carbon nanotubes, are exceptionally small manmade materials that are several times thinner than a wavelength of visible light. They are essentially long, thin hollow pipes only…
