Advanced Materials and Devices: Micro/Nanofabrication and Characterization

Gracie Wilson

The key to the nanotechnology revolution is the controllable manufacturing of materials/devices at the micro- and nanoscale, which is backed up by enhanced characterization. We have made nanotechnology a reality, compared to decades before when it was confined to the literature. Some sectors, such as silicon chip manufacture, have been affected by the nanoeffect and are attempting to avoid it.
