High-Powered Computing Heralds Digital Industrial Revolution (preview)
When Thomas Edison invented a practical electric lightbulb more than 130 years ago, he performed thousands of experiments on prototypes, and we still marvel at his methodical patience today. A modern inventor proposing a similar approach, however, would more likely elicit laughter than praise. Product research and development more and more lives in the realm of bits and bytes, with engineers designing, testing, tweaking and even demonstrating new ideas via computer before any physical version exists.

Cheap Nanotech Filter Clears Hazardous Microbes and Chemicals from Drinking Water
About 780 million people--a tenth of the world’s population--do not have access to clean drinking water. Water laced with contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, lead and arsenic claims millions of lives each year. But an inexpensive device that effectively clears such contaminants from water may help solve this problem. [More] (Source: Scientific American Topic - Nanotechnology)

9 Materials That Will Change the Future of Manufacturing [Slide Show]
The future of manufacturing depends on a number of technological breakthroughs in robotics, sensors and high-performance computing, to name a few. But nothing will impact how things are made, and what they are capable of, more than the materials manufacturers use to make those things . New materials change both the manufacturing process and the end result. [More] (Source: Scientific American Topic - Nanotechnology)

The Solar Cell That Turns 1 Photon into 2 Electrons
Solar cells are picky. If an incoming photon has too little energy, the cell won’t absorb it. If a photon has too much, the excess is wasted as heat. No matter what, a silicon solar cell can... -- Read more on ScientificAmerican.com (Source: Scientific American Topic - Nanotechnology)
