ML3305 INTRODUCTION TO NANOTECHNOLOGY L T P C
3 0 0 3
OBJECTIVE
This subject imparts basics of nanotechnology, their importance and tools to
characterise nanostructures. The student are introduced to carbon nanotubes and few
other nanostructured materials and their applications.
UNIT I INTRODUCTION 10
Moore’s law, silicon micro fabrication techniques such a photolithography/electron beam
lithography and their advantages and limitations, importance of nanotechnology and its
potential impacts, historical milestones in nanotechnology, prerequisites to make
transition into nanotechnology era, proposed futuristic applications in nanotechnology
and current state of the art.
UNIT II SCANNING PROBE MICROSCOPY 10
Tool for performing structural analysis at the nanometer scale and as a tool for
nanopositioning. Operating principle of Scanning Tunnelling Microscope (STM), Atomic
Force Microscope (AFM) and Scanning near Field Optical Microscope (SNFOM) and
their applications by drawing on practical research examples. Advantages and
disadvantages of SPM technique. Potentiality of SPM to overcome other complementary
techniques.
UNIT III CHARACTERISATION OF NANOMATERIALS 7
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) -
applicability to characterize nanostructured materials.
UNIT IV CARBON NANOTUBES 8
Types of carbon nanotubes such as single-walled and multi-walled nanotubes,
fabrication, physical and chemical properties, applications. Other carbon morphologies,
bucky balls, graphenes.
UNIT V NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS 10
Liquid crystal templates: surfactants and their phase behaviour: formation of micelles
and liquid crystal phases, for use as nanoscale moulds for templating, electroplating of
42
nanostructured mesoporous films - physical properties of mesoporous nanostructured
materials and applications (current and potential).
