Dr. Matt Kim: Nanotechnology: The Science of the Small

Bio: Dr. Matt Kim is the Founder and President of QuantTera (2005 to present, Scottsdale, AZ), a microelectronics research and development company that specializes in nano-engineered devices for photonic telecommunications and energy applications. He is responsible for the development of novel processes and device structures for improvements in photonics device performance and for the design and manufacture of integrated photonic components and subsystems for communications and energy applications. He specializes in the physics of low dimensional quantum based device structures. He is an expert: in the crystal growth of GaAs and InP based technology for photonic application and; the microelectronic fabrication and testing of semiconductor devices. Through his career he has set-up many research and development labs through manufacturing facilities. He received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, and has a BS in engineering physics from Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. He is member of the American Physical Society and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). Presentation: Was recorded at the University of Advancing Technology Tech Forum Spring 2012

New Nano Science Technology 2011 (The Future)

Welcome to the nano scale. Nanoscale is where properties differ significantly from those at a larger scale. The strange world of nanoscience can take you into atoms and beyond the stars. A new horizon has begun for mankind in creating new technologies and one day eradicating diseases. That water bottle that turns urine into drink water could help drought stricken countries, instead of a little water bottle maybe a water tank version? Introduction to Nanoscience What is nanoscience? The word itself is a combination of nano, from the Greek “nanos” (or Latin “nanus”), meaning “Dwarf”, and the word “Science.” Nano refers to the 10-9 power, or one billionth. In these terms it refers to a meter, or a nanometer, which is on the scale of atomic diameters. For comparison, a human hair is about 100000 nanometers thick! Nanoscience is the study of atoms, molecules, and objects whose size is on the nanometer scale ( 1 – 100 nanometers ). Why is the study of nanoscience different than the same problems on a larger scale? Physics is different on the nanometer scale. Properties not seen on a macroscopic scale now become important- such as quantum mechanical and thermodynamic properties. Rather than working with bulk materials, one works with individual atoms and molecules. By learning about an individual molecule’s properties, we can put them together in very well-defined ways to produce new materials with new and amazing characteristics. Why is nanoscience suddenly becoming such a big …
