2. What is Nano? Nano means one billionth. The Scale of “Nanoscale” 1 nm = 0.000000001 m
3. What is Nanotechnology? Nanotechnology is the creation and use of materials or devices at extremely small scales. Nanotechnology - Deals with molecules between one and one hundred nanometers in diameter. Manipulating individual atoms and manufacturing from the bottom up.
7. These colors were much more luminous and durable than dyes could produce, and were the products of “coinagemetal” nanoparticles imbedded in the glass.
8. As these nanoparticles get smaller, the colors shift from red, through yellow and green, to blue.
9. Modern Nanotechnology - Investment Investments in nanotechnology are on the rise. These advances are in both basic university-basedresearch, as well as industry. Many of these advances use nanoparticles in some form or other.
10. A demonstration on the molecular level A nano-motor manipulated by two laser beams
11. Positive Effects on Society Nanomachines could allow for cleaner energy production Nanomachines in the blood stream patrolling for viruses
22. Computer Circuits*The Blue MorphoRhenetor Butterfly: The Blue MorphoRhenetor Butterfly is the focus of our project as we study the photonic crystals found on the scales of the wings.
