Yale engineers have created a process that may revolutionize the manufacture of nano-devices from computer memory to biomedical sensors by exploiting a novel type of metal. The material can be molded like plastics to create features at the nano-scale and yet is more durable and stronger than silicon or steel. The work is reported in the February 12 issue of Nature. The search is for a cost-effective and manageable process for higher-density computer chip production at the nano-scale. (source: opa.yale.edu)
