Strengthening Fluids With Nanoparticles
New study paves way for using nanofluids in cameras, microdevices, and displays Troy, N.Y. — Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have demonstrated that liquids embedded with nanoparticles show enhanced performance and stability when exposed to electric fields. The finding could lead to new types of miniature camera lenses, cell phone displays, and other microscale fluidic devices.
