Globe and Mail: Katie Gibbs has been in full campaign mode in recent weeks with a calendar full of public and media appearances. But the PhD biologist isn't a candidate in the federal election nor is she endorsing one. Instead, she is focused on a single mission: improving the state and the role of science within the Canadian government.

Curly Nanowires catch more light than straight nanowires.
2015-09-15 14:31:11| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Researchers from Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey, have shown that twisting straight nanowires into springs can increase amount of light wires absorb by up to 23%. Absorbing more light is important because one application of nanowires is turning light into electricity. Enhanced light harvesting efficiency of nanosprings also opens opportunities to build nanoscale devices that power themselves. Results of this research are published in the journal Applied Optics, from The Optical Society.
