Mildred Dresselhaus was a giant in the field of nanoscience. She didn't invent anything you have in your home right now, but she made it possible for us to have self-charging phones, smarter refrigerators, and more.

Today we're talking about the blackest material ever created!

Hank talks about space elevators, and why we shouldn't expect to see one any time soon.

A Stanford University engineering team has been busy bringing its grand achievement of 2013 -- the world's first carbon nanotube computer -- to a grand scale by making the performance competitive with silicon-based processors. And the...

A University of Adelaide-led research team has created a carbon nanotube that could help fight microplastic pollution in our oceans.

View an interview with Mark C. Hersam of Northwestern University. Double-sided carbon nanotubes are highly prized for their use in solar cells and other applications, but until now creating a supply of just double-sided carbon nanotubes,...

To operate and function efficiently, machines of all shapes and sizes need a source of energy. A series of innovations is helping to make energy conversion within fuel cells as efficient as possible.
