Course Description: In this course, developed by Utah College of Applied Technology, students learn the setup and operation of 3+2 and 5-axis milling machines. Topics covered include setup fundamentals, basic probing routines, filtering, setting tool and fixture offsets, dialing in a fixture,...

This animation of N-Channel Enhancement MOSFET Characteristic Curves is provided by Maricopa Advanced Technology Education Center (MATEC). The objective of the animation is to determine the active and non-active operation of regions of an n-Channel MOSFET gate. An .mp4 is also available and runs...

This webinar handout was made to accompany the webinar Fundamentals of Metrology and Characterization For Nanotechnology, presented by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge (NACK) Network on September 27, 2013. In the webinar, Dr. Diane Hickey-Davis, a respected scientist and product...

This webinar, presented by Dr. Paul Westerhoff, discusses the occurrence, removal, sources, and uses of nanomaterials. Detail is given about how nanomaterials end up at water treatment plants as well as how they are detected and removed from those plants. Also addressed are issues that nanomaterials...

The laboratory is focused on the application of sub-wavelength optical phenomena and fabrication methods to the development of novel devices and instrumentation for the life sciences. The group is highly interdisciplinary, with expertise in the areas of microfabrication, nanotechnology, computer...

In this brief activity, students are introduced to the nanometer and become familiar with just how small the nanoscale is. The lesson plan employs useful analogies to help illustrate the topics.

In this activity, students review applications of nanotechnology and discuss issues involved in cutting edge technology. The purpose of the activity is to get students to think about how different advances in nanotechnology can be used in different ways, and what the ethical and societal...

This webinar, from the National Center for Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge, provides information on environmental and biomedical applications for nanocelluloses. The presentation was given by Dr. Amir Sheikhi, Assistant Professor in Chemical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering at...

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concept of nanomotors. Students will learn about nanometers through hands-on experiments which "explore nanoscale propulsion principles and guide students in recognizing and analyzing differences between macroscale...

Nanooze is a website that has been created to get kids excited about science and especially nanotechnology. The world that is too small to see is full of interesting stuff. Scientists and engineers are beginning to understand this world and learning how to change things at the nanoscale level. Why?...
