Chen, who comes from the faculty of Carnegie Mellon University, started in January as director of the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. (Jan. 12, 2009)
Cornell and DuPont researchers have invented a method of preparing carbon nanotubes for suspension in a semiconducting 'ink,' which can then be printed into thin, flexible electronics. (Jan. 8, 2009)
Cornell researchers have used a beam of light to trap and move particles as small as 75 nanometers in diameter, including DNA molecules, a new approach to the 'lab on a chip.' (Dec. 31, 2008)
Quick dissipation of heat at the most fundamental scales is just one way that the work of CNF research associate Derek Stewart may someday change the face of computing and electronics. (Dec. 23, 2008)
Biomedical engineering Ph.D. student George K. Lewis is making therapeutic ultrasound devices that are smaller, more powerful and many times less expensive than today's models. (Dec. 18, 2008)
Researchers have invented an efficient, inexpensive method to electrically characterize individual carbon nanotubes, even when they are of slightly different shapes and sizes and are networked together. (Dec. 15, 2008)
Paper airplanes went sailing -- and crashing -- through the Bartels field house Dec. 3 during an end-of-semester competition between teams of mechanical and aerospace engineering students. (Dec. 12, 2008)
Cornell researchers have come up with a simple, inexpensive flapping wing vehicle that hovers as well as a hummingbird or a bumblebee - and might eventually be made just as small. (Dec. 10, 2008)
