For the first time researchers have successfully produced complex crystal lattices known as clathrates from nanoparticles using a new method that employs DNA strands. The programed synthesis of clathrates represents a template for the precision modeling of novel nanomaterials. In cooperation with th... Continue

Prof. Vogel was part of an international and interdisciplinary team consisting of researchers from FAU and Harvard University to developed a transparent surface coating for an endoscope lens that could effortlessly repel blood and other fluids. Vogel declares: "The coating could soon lead to shorter... Continue
