Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our approach to nanotechnology stresses parallel (as opposed to serial) processing and self-assembly techniques and we have demonstrated a basic parallel nanofabrication process that will enable a wide variety of nanometer-scale structures to be made. The process of nanometer molecular lithography employs two-dimensional biomolecular crystals as patterning elements in the parallel fabrication of structures on the 1--10 nm length scale. We have further demonstrated the fabrication of composite biomolecular/solid state heterostructures of nanometer dimension (nanoheterostructures). We are presently pursuing central issues in the development of nanotechnology such as the understanding and control of fluctuations and structural variations as well as applications of our nanofabrication process. An example of the latter is the formation of porous silicon having monodisperse arrays of silicon ''quantum wires'' to elucidate the role of quantum confinement in the phenomenon of luminescent silicon.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the more notable accomplishments during the course% of this contract we identify the following results: 0 A precisely ordered and precisely located array of 5 nm diameter nanoclusters has been fabricated by first etching into the substrate an array of holes with diameters comparable to the size of nanoclusters sought and then depositing adatoms on the substrate. Our methods enable rapid fabrication of arrays for fundamental studies and provide a route to manufacturability of nanostructure arrays for technological purposes. We reported the ability to control the morphology of nanometer thick Ti oxide films which were created via a parallel nanofabrication process using a two-dimensional protein crystal as a template. Atomic force microscopy was used to examine the evolution of these structures from a periodic array of nanometer-scale dots (nanodots) to a screen containing a periodic array of nanometer-scale holes (nanoscreen) as the film thickness was increased. We reported the creation of large arrays of nanometer-scale dots (nanodot arrays) with the oxides of several additional metals near Ti in the periodic table. A computer simulation of nanoscale hole formation based on curvature dependent sputtering and surface self-diffusion was formulated. The model simulates the experimental data from our nanopatterning process quite well.

Book excerpt: Many of the devices and systems used in modern industry are becoming progressively smaller and have reached the nanoscale domain. Nanofabrication aims at building nanoscale structures, which can act as components, devices, or systems, in large quantities at potentially low cost. Nanofabrication is vital to all nanotechnology fields, especially for the realization of nanotechnology that involves the traditional areas across engineering and science. This is the first book solely dedicated to the manufacturing technology in nanoscale structures, devices, and systems and is designed to satisfy the growing demands of researchers, professionals, and graduate students. Both conventional and non-conventional fabrication technologies are introduced with emphasis on multidisciplinary principles, methodologies, and practical applications. While conventional technologies consider the emerging techniques developed for next generation lithography, non-conventional techniques include scanning probe microscopy lithography, self-assembly, and imprint lithography, as well as techniques specifically developed for making carbon tubes and molecular circuits and devices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to move, manipulate and precisely assemble nanoscale materials is key to further advances in nanotechnology, especially nanoscale manufacturing, fabrication of sensors, electronics components etc. Electrokinetics is a key technique for achieving these ends, an is already widely used in MEMS and nanotechnology applications. This book provides a thorough overview of electrokinetics, focusing on both theoretical and experimental aspects of this important technique. Wen Li shows how to use electric field concepts to assemble nanoscale systems (i.e. systems on the scale of molecules). The use of field forces, as in electrokinetics, offers the level of precision required to manipulate and assemble large arrays of similar structures at the nano-scale. Electrokinetics is also put into a broader context by the author's wider examination of nanoscale systems, including an explanation of how competing forces and interactions operate at the molecular scale. Wen Li's book will enable readers to develop the ability to systematically design nano-sensing platforms and nano-manufacturing systems in a range of applications for areas including healthcare, precision engineering, lubrication, cell manipulation and the analysis of biological samples. Build a fundamental understanding of how to rapidly manipulate and assemble nanoscale entities using electrokinetics. Gain knowledge of the engineering methods available for parallel nanoscale manipulation, assembly, and manufacturing. Develop the ability to systematically design nano-sensing platforms and nano-manufacturing systems.

This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: energy production, environmental management, transportation, communication, computation, and education. As the twenty-first century unfolds, nanotechnology's impact on the health, wealth, and security of the world's people is expected to be at least as significant as the combined influences in this century of antibiotics, the integrated circuit, and human-made polymers. Dr. Neal Lane, Advisor to the President for Science and Technology and former National Science Foundation (NSF) director, stated at a Congressional hearing in April 1998, "If I were asked for an area of science and engineering that will most likely produce the breakthroughs of tomorrow, I would point to nanoscale science and engineering. " Recognizing this potential, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) have issued a joint memorandum to Federal agency heads that identifies nanotechnology as a research priority area for Federal investment in fiscal year 2001. This report charts "Nanotechnology Research Directions," as developed by the Interagency W orking Group on Nano Science, Engineering, and Technology (IWGN) of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC). The report incorporates the views of leading experts from government, academia, and the private sector. It reflects the consensus reached at an IWGN-sponsored workshop held on January 27-29, 1999, and detailed in contributions submitted thereafter by members of the V. S. science and engineering community. (See Appendix A for a list of contributors.

This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Approaches to Image Processing Based Failure Analysis of Nano-Scale ULSI Devices introduces the reader to transmission and scanning microscope image processing for metal and non-metallic microstructures. Engineers and scientists face the pressing problem in ULSI development and quality assurance: microscopy methods can't keep pace with the continuous shrinking of feature size in microelectronics. Nanometer scale sizes are below the resolution of light, and imaging these features is nearly impossible even with electron microscopes, due to image noise. This book presents novel "smart" image processing methods, applications, and case studies concerning quality improvement of microscope images of microelectronic chips and process optimization. It explains an approach for high-resolution imaging of advanced metallization for micro- and nanoelectronics. This approach obviates the time-consuming preparation and selection of microscope measurement and sample conditions, enabling not only better electron-microscopic resolution, but also more efficient testing and quality control. This in turn leads to productivity gains in design and development of nano-scale ULSI chips. The authors also present several approaches for super-resolving low-resolution images to improve failure analysis of microelectronic chips. - Acquaints users with new software-based approaches to enhance high-resolution microscope imaging of microchip structures - Demonstrates how these methods lead to productivity gains in the development of ULSI chips - Presents several techniques for the superresolution of images, enabling engineers and scientists to improve their results in failure analysis of microelectronic chips
