When Nanotechnology startedBackground

When Nanotechnology startedFeynman said in his after dinner talk:

‘I would like to describe a field, in which little has been done, but in which an enormous amount can be done in principle.

What I want to talk about is the problem of manipulating and controlling things on a small scale.

Why cannot we write the entire 24 volumes of the Encyclopedia Brittanica on the head of a pin?

Background

In 1959 a ’’computer’’ would fill a large room.

The road already traveled: Nanoscale miniaturizationFeynman proposed shrinking computing devices toward their physical

limits where “wires should be 10 or 100 atoms in diameter”. Samsung this month announced large-scale production of devices

built with 30 nanometer technology, which is to say,

with wires at Feynman’s 100-atom scale.

Technology at hand at that time was not enabling us to satisfy the dream of Feynman

Background

To utlize what ’Nanotechnology’ offers is acheived by first have control over the material that enables the technology. This means to have control of a nano-material.

Different approaches to Nanotechnology

Background

To obtain nano-materials there are two main approaches:

Top-down approach.

Bottom-up approach.

Top–down and bottom–up are two approaches for the manufacture of products.

Background

Bottom–up approaches seek to have smaller (usually molecular) components built up into more complex assemblies.

Background

What happens when objects are shirnks

to small sizes?The answer is simple: the physical

observation changes completely.

Why?Becuase the dominating forces do not

scale with the same way.

Effects at small sizes

General rule:When objects shrinks down

isomorphically, then the forces are scaled for those with

lower power of the linear dimensions in a way to keep them

dominating.

This menas the physical observation simply changes. It is no longer governed by the classical picture.

Nano-structures and sensitivityAs objects are scaled down the ratio of the surface to volume increases sharply. This render surface effects more pronounced.

Isolated small size electrode will possesses high sensitivity due to non-linearity effects.

It was demonstrated that an isolated nano-wire can very effeciently feels the presence of a single ion in the vicinity !

Non-linearity effects. What is it?Answer: compatibility!

You can NOT push an elephant to a room through a small door.

Effects at small sizesNano-structures and sensitivity

Small concentration elements must be available with a large volume if we have to

detect them. This volume is sometimes not available.

Fortunately sensor sensitivity scale with size.

Why ’small’ tools?

where C is the concentration, N is Avogadro’s number, Ø is the sensor efficiency (0-1).

Classically a sample volume V needed to detect an element is given by:

The growth of materials is classified according to the growth temperature into:

High temperature (few 100s degrees C).Low temperature (less than 100 degrees C).

Difficulties: cleanness, special substrate, etc..

High temperature (few 100s degrees C)

Low temperature (less than 100 degrees C)

Low temperature means a temperature less than 100 degrees C.

(+) This low temperature allows the use of ’soft’ substrates.

Can be scaled-up.

Suitable for growth on sub-micrometer glass tips for use in medical sensors an devices.

Chemical engineering

Common approaches:(1) Hydrothermal chemical growth(2) Chemical path deposition (CBD)(3) Electrochemical deposition (4) Sol Gel...(5)................

Chemical engineering of inorganic materials Synthesis of nano-sized inorganic materials require receipes at low temperature to control a short range reaction. In addition a rational design and tunning of the chemcial process parameters is required.

This is a suitable approach to research in Sudan Becuase you do not need sophisticated instruments

Disadvantageoues:To conrol precis engineering has to be aopted. Otherwise, different nano-structures will be obtained.

An equimolar (0.1 M) aqueous solution (MilliQ, 18.2 MOhm)of zinc nitrate, and methenamine, C6H12N4, is placed in a regular laboratory oven and heated at 95 °C for 1-10 h, depending on the required micro-rod length. Subsequently, the thin films are thoroughly washed with water to remove any residual salt or amino complex and allowed to dry in air at room temperature.

Why Metal Oxides Nanostructures?It is worldwide recognized that the superior properties of nanomaterials will promise a revolutionary new approach with a major impact in various innovative applications. These property improvements or even new properties derive from structural features such as particle size or layer thickness on a scale 1-100 nm, much smaller than that found in conventional materials. The screening and synthesis of new nanostructured metal oxides is a major research topic world wide.

Why Metal Oxides Nanostructures?

Easy to grow, enviromental friendly, and of interest to many applications.

We will deal with two imporant metal oxides Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and Cupper Oxide (CuO).

Suitable for Technical and Medical applictions.

The book series are suitably divided into five volumes with topics ranging from growth to properties to applications of metal oxide nanostructures. Due to the valuable properties and applications of ZnO nanostructures, the fifth volume of the book series is devoted only on ZnO nanostructures and their nanodevice applications.

physics of the complicated multipule path way processes

difficult to observe these processes is the fact that, these

processes are sometimes temporary.
