EurekAlert July 27, 2020 Researchers in the UK are working on a grant drive next-generation solar technology into new applications. Their performance competes with current technology, but they have the advantages of being flexible, lightweight, cheap to produce, and they can be printed directly onto products during manufacture. The goal is to Deliver the fundamental science and engineering to underpin the development of these promising solar technologies; Develop low-carbon, low-cost manufacturing methods that will enable them to be produced at scale; Develop prototypes to show how they can provide solar power in new applications…read more.

Masters programme offers pathway to emerging nano-industry
Physics World July 13, 2018 In collaboration with industry, the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) in the UK will start a Masters programme in nanoscience and nanotechnology specifically designed to give students the skills and experience they need to work in the fast-moving nanotechnology industry. Prospective employers also have the opportunity to get to know the students they are working with. To make the course very relevant to employers, the university will be bringing in industrial partners to talk about nanotechnology and their current challenges, and then incorporate that insight into the teaching programme. According to the university, nanotechnology will be […]
