New method for measuring the temperature of nanoscale objects discovered
Exeter, UK (SPX) May 05, 2014 - Temperature measurements in our daily life are typically performed by bringing a thermometer in contact with the object to be measured. However, measuring the temperature of nanoscale objects is a much more tricky task due to their size - up to a thousand times smaller than the width of a human hair. Pioneering research, published in Nature Nanotechnology, has now developed a method to acc ... more
