U of T Engineering researchers, working with colleagues from Carnegie Mellon University, have published new insights into how materials transfer heat, which could eventually lead to smaller, more powerful electronic devices. Integrated circuits and other electronic parts have been shrinking…
A new technique developed by Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Professor Ted Sargent , Canada Research Chair in Nanotechnology, and his research group could lead to significantly more efficient solar cells, according to a recent paper published in the journal Nano Letters.…
A diagnostic ‘cocktail,’ containing a single drop of blood, a dribble of water and a dose of DNA powder with gold particles, could one day lead to the treatment of the world’s leading diseases. This homegrown brew is being developed…
University of Toronto researchers won or shared honours in six of eight prize categories in this year’s awards from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), presented Feb. 27 in Ottawa. Among them are U of T…
Five U of T Engineering researchers are among U of T recipients of Natural Science and Engineering Council of Canada (NSERC) Strategic Project Grants (SPG) programs announced February 8, 2013. Professors Elizabeth Edwards (ChemE), Ömer Gülder (UTIAS), Nazir Kherani (ECE,…
A detector so sensitive it can register a single molecule of carbon dioxide: that’s the goal that Professor Harry Ruda (MSE) and his colleagues are working towards. And that goal is getting a little closer, thanks to a $350,000 three-year…
