Science Nation: "Silver Saver": Nanotechnology Keeps the Shine on Silver

Scientists from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the A. James Clark School of Engineering, University of Maryland, have teamed up with conservators from the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Md., to develop and test a new, high-tech way to protect silver art objects and artifacts, using coatings that are mere nanometers thick. The technique, called atomic layer deposition (ALD), will be used to create metal oxide films which, when applied to an artifact, are both

Innovators - Eyes of Science

Sometimes the biggest problems can be solved by looking at the tiniest details. NION Co. president Ondrej Krivanek and Rutgers University scientist Philip Batson are part of a collaboration to build one of the world's most advanced electron microscopes. Their research is supported by an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grant from the National Science Foundation. They hope the tool will enable scientists to study and improve everything from nanomaterials to solar

Science Nation - Silver Saver

Conservation scientist Glen Gates at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore is working on new ways to protect museum-quality silver from the ravages of time. Fine silverware and silver pieces on display at museums are exposed to air and tarnish just like our silver at home. Every time someone polishes the silver, even under the careful supervision of conservation experts, a little bit of the silver wears away. Gates and colleague, Physics professor Ray Phaneuf at the University of Maryland, are
