A system for recycling planar objects including compressed mineral fiber material includes: a conveyor arranged to covey the planar objects through a number of stations at least including a thickness measurement station and a sound measurement station. The sound measurement station includes a sound reflecting surface arranged to back a first major surface of a planar object, a sound emitter arranged to emit sound towards the sound reflecting surface, a sound receiver arranged to receive sound reflected from the sound reflecting surface, and a converter arranged to determine a property related to sound absorption. A sorting station is arranged to sort the planar objects based on determined properties in to a plurality of fractions.

System and method for recycling planar objects

A method for transferring an assembly of oriented nanowires from a liquid interface onto a surface including providing a first liquid and a second liquid, wherein the first and second liquids phase separate into a bottom phase, a top phase and an interface between the bottom phase and the top phase, providing nanowires in the first and second liquids such that the majority of the nanowires are located at the interface and providing the nanowires onto a substrate such that a majority of the nanowires are aligned with respect to each other on the substrate.

Methods of capturing and aligning an assembly of nanowires

A nanowire device and a method of making a nanowire device are provided. The device includes a plurality of nanowires functionalized with different functionalizing compounds. The method includes functionalizing the nanowires with a functionalizing compound, dispersing the nanowires in a polar or semi-polar solvent, aligning the nanowires on a substrate such that longitudinal axes of the nanowires are oriented about perpendicular to a major surface of the substrate, and fixing the nanowires to the substrate.
