This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, teaches students about Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Nanoparticles are too small to be viewed with a light microscope so a SEM must be employed which "uses electrons to image the surface of a material." A Teacher's...

Nanotechnology is an emerging field of engineering, but the small structure of the technology makes it intimidating for many. This website, hosted by The National Infrastructure Network, allows users to “see” nanotechnology. It more specifically addresses three questions: “Why would we want to make...
