Feedback Related Links Worldwide Labs Page Contact IBM Research Nanotechnology About IBM's Nanotech Research IBM's nanotechnology research aims to devise new atomic- and molecular-scale structures and devices for enhancing information technologies, as well as discover and understand their scientific foundations. Leading the development of nanotechnology, IBM's scientists have made numerous breakthroughs in the study of these nano-scale technologies. In particular, carbon nanotubes and scanning probes derived from the atomic force microscope cousin of the scanning tunneling microscope show particular promise in enabling dramatically improved circuits and data storage devices. Research on nanoparticles leads to applications in biomedicine as well as hard disk drive storage. Photonic bandgap materials on-chip nanoscale structures the size of a wavelength of light will manipulate light as optical waveguides, splitters and routers. Research into nanomechanical information storage, such as IBM's Millipede project, continues to increase the possibilities for increased areal storage density. IBM's research into nano-scale structures that self-assemble may one day obviate the need to "hand-position" atoms. Nanotechnology will allow the design and control of the structure of an object on all length scales, from the atomic to the macroscopic enabling more efficient and vastly less expensive manufacturing processes and providing the hardware foundation for future information technology.

New! THIRTY ESSENTIAL NANO STUDIES Introduction to Nanotechnology "The principles of physics, as far as I can see, do not speak against the possibility of maneuvering things atom by atom. It is not an attempt to violate any laws; it is something, in principle, that can be done; but in practice, it has not been done because we are too big." — Richard Feynman Managing Magic A brief overview of the challenges posed by advanced nanotechnology Challenges of Nanotechnology - An online PowerPoint presentation Nano Simulation A way to visualize what is meant by molecular manufacturing Debating the Future of Nanotechnology Perspective from the Foresight Institute A 5-minute summary of Eric Drexler's Nanosystems What is nanotechnology? And why does it have to be used responsibly? Nanotechnology is the projected ability to make things from the bottom up , using techniques and tools that are being developed today to place every atom and molecule in a desired place. If this form of molecular engineering is achieved, which seems probable, it will result in a manufacturing revolution . It also has serious economic, social, environmental, and military implications.

Dictionaries: General Computing Medical Legal Encyclopedia Nanotechnology Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition nanotechnology - /nan'-oh-tek-no"l*-jee/ Any fabrication technology in which objects are designed and built by the specification and placement of individual atoms or molecules or where at least one dimension is on a scale of nanometers. The first unequivocal nanofabrication experiments took place in 1990, for example with the deposition of individual xenon atoms on a nickel substrate to spell the logo of a certain very large computer company. Nanotechnology has been a hot topic in the hacker subculture ever since the term was coined by K. Eric Drexler in his book "Engines of Creation", where he predicted that nanotechnology could give rise to replicating assemblers, permitting an exponential growth of productivity and personal wealth.

Is Nanotechnology Real? http://www.ghandchi.com/306-NanoEng.htm Persian Version http://www.ghandchi.com/306-Nano-plus.htm Letter of K. Eric Drexler -01/02/04 Preface There is a very important debate in the nanotechnology research community. The debate is called Drexler-Smalley debate and is focused on the issue of molecular assembly. K. Eric Drexler founded the field of nanotechnology about 20 years ago, and he is the chairman of Foresight Institute Richard E. Smalley is a Nobel Laureate in chemistry and has been a researcher in the field of nanotech for ten years, working on potential applications of carbon nanotubes It is interesting that one of the great visionaries of our times, who is the foremost authority in the field of Artificial Intelligence, namely Ray Kurzweil , has diligently addressed the Drexler-Smalley debate. Kurzweil's article is a very detailed technical account of the debate, and he shows very scientifically why it is important to support Drexler's vision. In my opinion, the Drexler-Smalley debate today has a significance way beyond the interests of their special research areas, just as the field of Artificial Intelligence had similar debates 20 years ago, when on the one hand, McCarthy and Minsky, believed AI was possible, and on the other side, there were those like Dreyfus and Searle, either negated the possibility of Artificial Intelligence or saw it too weak.

On-line Courses UALR building a better computer...with nanotechnology By Billy Bird Dr. Jerry Darsey and researchers in UALR's Center for Theoretical Studies of Molecular and Biomolecular Systems are conducting research in nanotechnology involving transition atoms in nanotubes. Single-walled carbon nanotubes are only 1/50,000th the diameter of a human hair, but are known to have extraordinary mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. UALR scientists are working to model metallic elements inside nanotubes that have properties best suited for ideal energy transfer and energy diffusions between the different parts of a nanotube. By creating these models, UALR researchers dramatically refine the choices of elements used by synthetic chemists in developing a wide range of improved products using nanotechnology. So how does all this translate to a faster computer? One of the most exciting applications of nanotube research is the potential development of "nanologic circuits." According to Darsey, we are fast-approaching the limits of current silicon chips and new nanologic circuits would allow scientists to place 100, even 1,000 times the number of circuits on a square-inch microchip. Nanologic circuits mean faster, smaller computers that use less energy. "This is an important area of science — one that is growing quickly," said Darsey. "More and more people are working in this particular field, but we have been doing nanotechnology research at UALR for the past five or six years."

Games, robotics, humour, music CDs, news and reviews, weird and wacky sites, UK events, future shopping... 21st Century Science Nanotechnology Nanotechnology Manufactured products are made from atoms. The properties of those products depend on how those atoms are arranged. If we rearrange the atoms in coal we can make diamond. If we rearrange the atoms in sand (and add a few other trace elements) we can make computer chips. If we rearrange the atoms in dirt, water and air we can make potatoes. Todays manufacturing methods are very crude at the molecular level. Casting, grinding, milling and even lithography move atoms in great thundering statistical herds. It's like trying to make things out of LEGO blocks with boxing gloves on your hands. Yes, you can push the LEGO blocks into great heaps and pile them up, but you can't really snap them together the way you'd like. In the future, nanotechnology will let us take off the boxing gloves. We'll be able to snap together the fundamental building blocks of nature easily, inexpensively and in almost any arrangement that we desire. This will be essential if we are to continue the revolution in computer hardware beyond about the next decade, and will also let us fabricate an entire new generation of products that are cleaner, stronger, lighter, and more precise
