A Gentle Introduction to Nanotechnology and Nanoscience

By Mark Ratner

Northwestern University

Category Online Presentations
Abstract While the Greek root nano just means dwarf, the nanoscale has become a giant focus of contemporary science and technology. We will examine the fundamental issues underlying the excitement involved in nanoscale research - what, why and how. Specific topics include assembly, properties, applications, and societal issues.
