Microcups Made of Nanopaper 144
Roland Piquepaille writes "Researchers at the University of Arkansas have created long nanowires with titanium dioxide and assembled them into pieces of 'nanopaper.' This flexible paper can fold into 3D nanostructures such as tubes, bowls or cups. This kind of nanopaper could soon be used for applications such as bacteria filters, decomposition of pollutants and chemical warfare agents. But first the University needs to find industrial partners. Read more for additional details and some pictures of these microcups."

So, wait, nanowires join together to make nanopaper which in turn is made into microcups. What the heck's going on? How do you make nanocups?? From femtowires????
Oh, *I* get it. They probably made nanocups, and then they were like, hey, what's even more cool than nanotechnology? HUGE nanotechnology, that's what! So they tried to build the biggest nanotechnology they could -- the microcup!
Only now it's NOT NANO ANY MORE, is it? You scientists think you're so smart, but you're just mean to rabbits.
