  1. Forward for Faculty & Collaborators The following presentation is a partial result of work performed at the Research Experience for Teachers (RET) through the University of Virginia Center for Diversity in Engineering and the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Special Thanks to LenoidZighle PHD, Computational Materials, School of Engineering, UVA Carolyn Vallas, PHD, Center for Diversity in Engineering, UVA Juliet Trail, Center for Diversity in Engineering, UVA

  2. Introduction to Nanotechnology By Randy Applegate At the RET sponsored by UVA and the Center for Diversity In Engineering

  3. What is Nanotechnology • the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometer in at least one dimension, and involves developing or modifying materials or devices within that size.

  4. Nanotechnology • is already making today’s products: • Lighter • Stronger • Faster • Smaller • More Durable

  5. How small is Nano - small? Units in nanometers (µm)

  6. Compared to Human Hair A Human Hair is about 100,000µm wide

  7. A “Nano-Scale” Demonstration http://screencast.com/t/MGMxZTcyN2E http://screencast.com/t/MzAxODc5
