The word “nanotechnology” was introduced for the first time into a scientific world by N. Taniguchi at the international conference on industrial production in Tokyo in 1974 in order to describe the super thin …

1.2- When Nanotechnology started However, advances in the tools that now allow atoms and molecules to be examined and probed with great precision have enabled the expansion and development of …

Students explores how nanotechnology has impacted the world, and how engineers have to consider the ramifications of working at a very small scale. Students are introduced to working with materials …

Different metals, metal oxides, sulfides, polymers, core-shell and composite nanoparticles can be prepared using a number of synthetic techniques, which are broadly classified into two categories, …

Nanotechnology has many implications for the environmental health of human beings. The implications become part of the information necessary to analyze risks of new materials and products.

In strict scientific terms, nanotechnology concerns physical dimensions ranging from 1-100 nm (1 nm = 10-9 m = 10 atoms wide) down to 1 nm. In present lecture we are focusing on the biological …

White light is made up of all wavelengths, or colors, of light. When white light hits a thin film, some of the light is reflected from the front surface of the film, and some travels through it and is reflected from …
