Description

Overview:

How small is small? And how can nanoscale matter improve our lives? Innovation Workshop: Nanotechnology explores this cutting-edge science and engineering of nanoscale matter. Nanotechnology involves manipulating and controlling matter from one nanometer to 100 nanometers. Just think, even a single sheet of newspaper is 100,000 nanometers thick. So, this technology is itty, bitty and teeny, tiny. Human DNA, the flu virus that makes you sick and molecules are all on the nanoscale.
