What is nanotechnology? The NNI defines it as: 1. Research and technology development at the atomic, molecular or macromolecular
levels, in the length scale of approximately 1 - 100 nanometer range. 2. Creating and using structures, devices and systems that have novel
properties and functions because of their small and/or intermediate size. 3. Ability to control or manipulate on the atomic scale. In order to create and design nanoscale structures and devices one must
know how to characterize objects on the nanometer scale. This is the purpose
of this course and the student will be introduced to a variety of techniques
to characterize objects that are 1—100 nm in size. |
