Challenging Reality: Playing at God?

admin — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 22:57:33 +0000

“Playing at God” is the fifth episode of my Challenging Reality TV series. The programme is all about the blurring boundaries between human beings and machines, and the impact of the convergence of technology and humanity on the future of ourselves and wider civilization.

The programme was first shown on Controversial TV (UK Sky Channel 200) on 12th January 2010. For more information, including a full transcript, please visit http://www.ExplainingTheFuture.com/reality or the forums at http://edgemediatv.com/forum

Nanomanufacturing: introduction

admin — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 01:49:33 +0000

This course will be offered at the University of Michigan during Winter 2010. Nanomanufacturing presents how to make and assemble nanostructures—particularly nanotubes, nanowires, and nanoparticles—into devices and materials ranging from transistors to films, fibers, and structural composites. Emphasis is placed on understanding the unique properties of these building blocks, and how properties scale from the individual elements to bulk material architectures. Scalability is governed by the physical interactions among the structures, and the ability to manipulate and order nanostructures using chemical, mechanical, and electrical means. Our goal is to design new materials and devices using nanostructures, along with elegant and efficient manufacturing processes that that can realize the promise of nanotechnology at commercially-feasible scales. The course culminates in a team project that proposes a novel device or manufacturing process that uses nanostructures, such as a new architecture for a photovoltaic cell or battery electrode, or a self-assembly or printing process.

Lecture notes will be posted in the “Teaching” section at http://www.mechanosynthesis.com.

Nanotechnology, Nanomachines, Nanobots and non-biomolecule Nanobiotech

admin — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 06:28:16 +0000

http://www.nanotransformation.com Bionanotech and nanobiotech are terms that are used interchangeably. This is not technically correct. Nanobiotech can use nano-elements that are not created by living organisms. (bio molecules) Bionanotech must use bio molecules to further the agenda of Biotech (big Pharma and big Agro). Nanobiotech can use nano assemblers and nanobots that include zeolites, elements, nano minerals and the rest.

Nanotechnology’s Big Impact

admin — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 22:41:20 +0000

In the first ChemMatters video, we find about why the very smallest machines, known as nanotechnology, hold very big promise. Nanotechnology may help create tiny devices that bring medicine exactly where it needs to go in your body, powerful computers the size of a grain of sand or vital new sources of energy.

ChemMatters, the award-winning magazine for high school chemistry, demystifies chemistry at work in our everyday lives.
