    SYDNEY, Australia, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Open access online journal,
AZoJono* (The AZo Journal of Nanotechnology Online) has released a special
nanotubes research edition in conjunction with DESYGN-IT*, an EU funded
collaborative research project that has been investigating the design,
synthesis, growth and application of nanotubes, nanowires and nanotube
arrays for industrial applications.

DESYGN-IT, is a collaborative research project between a number of
Universities and SME partners from several of the member states of the EU.

The AZoJono special edition comprises seven research articles that
focus on cutting edge carbon nanotube research, in particular the
characterisation of nanotubes and their products. Applications areas
discussed include the lithographic stamping of computer chips, connector
wires for computer chips, flat screen displays, catalysts, electrodes,
nanowires, miniature actuators and reinforced composite materials.

Professor Werner Blau from Trinity College Dublin, a leader in carbon
nanotube research and the DESYGN-IT project co-ordinator stated, "We are
very pleased to be able to release these papers online through the open
access journal, AZoJono. For some time now, I've been well aware of how
effective AZoJono is at distributing the latest Nanotech research findings
to a large global audience."

AZoNano.com Chief Editor David Freund commented, "It is very pleasing
to see the recognition that AZoJono is now receiving from leading Nanotech
researchers such as the DESYGN-IT team. Some of our most popular Nanotech
papers have now received over 40,000 page views and an involvement with
groups such as DESYGN-IT confirms that AZoJono's open access approach using
our patented OARS (Open Access Author Rewards) system is starting to gain
some significant traction as a highly successful mechanism for researchers
to broadcast their findings to the global Nanotech community."
