British tech company Surrey Nanosystems says its developed the worlds blackest material: made of carbon nanotubes, it can absorb 99.96 percent of light that hits it. Super-black carbon nanotube coatings are used in telescopes and other instruments that need to operate without any kind of noise from reflected light. Back in 2010, NASA announced that it […]

In many ways, plants are ideal technology hosts — theyre outdoor-friendly, self-healing and pollution-free. It only makes sense, then, that MIT scientists want to harness that potential by augmenting our leafy friends with nanotechnology. The researchers have found that injecting nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes into a plant can extend its natural abilities, or add functions […]

Its tough to build solar cells that capture both heat and light — most of these multi-talented devices cant trap more than one percent of the energy they receive. However, MIT has just blown past that limitation with a prototype chip that absorbs warmth through an outer layer of carbon nanotubes. The tubing heats up […]
