nano tech 2011 International Nanotechnology Exhibition and Conference celebrated its 10th annual event from Feb. 16 to Feb. 18, 2011 in Tokyo. 638 exhibitors covering an exhibition surface of 6786 square meters presented their nano technologies and products at this

world’s largest nano technology fair. 190 exhibitors, around 30 percent, came from one of the 20 exhibiting foreign countries and regions.

46,502 visitors gathered at the International Exhibition Center Tokyo Big Sight to…

Vertical nanocrystal whiskers or nanowiskers are one-dimensional crystals that look like rods or threads several nanometers in diameter. The rods are often cultivated using the elements of the third and fifth groups of the periodic table. The most common nanocrystals of the third and firth groups are gallium arsenide and indium phosphide. These semiconducting materials present competition to silicon in the electronics field as diodes and transistors built using them are faster in operation.…

Az utóbbi évek egyik legdinamikusabban fejlődő területe a nanotechnológia, de a közvélemény alig rendelkezik megbízható ismeretekkel a technológia lehetőségeiről, korlátairól. Ennek a tájékozatlanságnak a csökkentésére írt ki az MTA MFA pályázatot olyan kísérleti eszközök megalkotására, amelyek szórakoztató és közérthető módon mutatnak be alapvető nanotechnológiai jelenségeket.
