The bactericidal effect of silver nanoparticles

José Rubén Morones‐Ramírez, Jose Luis Elechiguerra, Alejandra Camacho et al. · 26 Aug 2005

Nanotechnology is expected to open new avenues to fight and prevent disease using atomic scale tailoring of materials. Among the most promising nanomaterials with antibacterial properties are metallic nanoparticles, which exhibit increased chemical activity due to their large surface to volume ratios and crystallographic surface structure. The study of bactericidal nanomaterials is particularly timely considering…

Nanometre diameter fibres of polymer, produced by electrospinning

Darrell H. Reneker, Iksoo Chun · 1 Sep 1996

Electrospinning uses electrical forces to produce polymer fibres with nanometre-scale diameters. Electrospinning occurs when the electrical forces at the surface of a polymer solution or melt overcome the surface tension and cause an electrically charged jet to be ejected. When the jet dries or solidifies, an electrically charged fibre remains. This charged fibre can be…

A review on electrospinning design and nanofibre assemblies

Wee Eong Teo, Seeram Ramakrishna · 30 Jun 2006

Although there are many methods of fabricating nanofibres, electrospinning is perhaps the most versatile process. Materials such as polymer, composites, ceramic and metal nanofibres have been fabricated using electrospinning directly or through post-spinning processes. However, what makes electrospinning different from other nanofibre fabrication processes is its ability to form various fibre assemblies. This will certainly…

Quantum cellular automata

Craig S. Lent, P. Douglas Tougaw, Wolfgang Porod et al. · 1 Jan 1993

The authors formulate a new paradigm for computing with cellular automata (CAS) composed of arrays of quantum devices-quantum cellular automata. Computing in such a paradigm is edge driven. Input, output, and power are delivered at the edge of the CA array only; no direct flow of information or energy to internal cells is required. Computing…

Size-dependent elastic properties of nanosized structural elements

Ronald E. Miller, Vijay B. Shenoy · 17 Jul 2000

Effective stiffness properties (D) of nanosized structural elements such as plates and beams differ from those predicted by standard continuum mechanics (Dc). These differences (D-Dc)/Dc depend on the size of the structural element. A simple model is constructed to predict this size dependence of the effective properties. The important length scale in the problem is…

Nanotechnology template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Nanotechnology format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Nanotechnology template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IOP Publishing format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Nanotechnology use?
Nanotechnology uses Numbered (IOP) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] Smith A, Jones B and Lee C 2023 A representative article title Nanotechnology 12 45–58
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Nanotechnology?
No. DocuGuru generates the iopjournal LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IOP Publishing-ready Nanotechnology document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Nanotechnology template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Nanotechnology format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Nanotechnology?
IOP Publishing journal. It is a physics journal, published by IOP Publishing.
Can I export a submission-ready Nanotechnology PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Nanotechnology template (the iopjournal class) that is ready to submit to IOP Publishing, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Nanotechnology template cost?
You can start writing in the Nanotechnology template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Nanotechnology PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
