The Fall 2001 issue of the _[Lawrence] Berkeley [National] Lab Research Review_ includes seven articles about nanotechnology. The Coming of the Nano-age: The emerging field of nanotechnology promises to change the way almost everything?from vaccines to computers?is designed and made. Legos for the Nano-age: Scientists and engineers are designing, synthesizing and characterizing new types of nanoscale building blocks in an effort to create the micromachines of the future. Beyond Alchemy and the Wright Brothers: It's their nanostructure that makes many crucial materials useful: there's a lot more to nanoscience than itty-bitty widgets. Microtools for the Nanoworld: An array of new micromachines is helping researchers understand and manipulate nanoscale devices. Imagining the Nanoworld: Theorists create atom-by-atom models from "first principles" to study the mysterious world of nanodevices. Tiny Particle Causes Big Stir: After collecting more than a year's worth of data, the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory delivers a long-awaited verdict: neutrinos have mass. Travels of a Young Physicist: A young researcher's work in basic materials science unexpectedly leads him to develop new approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. |
