e-learning Material – Nanotechnology and Nanogeoscience Dr.J.Saravanavel, Assistant Professor, Centre for Remote Sensing, Bharathidasan University. email: drsaraj@gmail.com On Dec. 29, 1959, at the California Institute of Technology, Nobel Laureate Richard P. Feynman gave a talk at the annual meeting of the American Physical Society that has become one of the twentieth century’s classic science lectures, titled “There’s Plenty of Room at the Bottom” What Is Nanotechnology? (Definition from the NNI) Research and technology development aimed to understand and control matter at dimensions of approximately 1 - 100 nanometer – the nanoscale Ability to understand, create, and use structures, devices and systems that have fundamentally new properties and functions because of their nanoscale structure Nanoarea Electron Diffraction of DW Carbon Nanotube – Zuo, et.al Ability to image, measure, model, and manipulate matter on the nanoscale to exploit those properties and functions Ability to integrate those properties and functions into systems spanning from nanoto macro-scopic scales Source: Clayton Teague, NNI 4 Corral of Fe Atoms – D.
