Main goals: - Knowledge: provide a historical perspective on Nanoscience- Knowledge: provide scientific and social contexts for Nanoscience- Motivation: show why research in (Nano)science is exciting

Nanoscience: A historical perspective

Block 6 (RDM): - Nanoscience and nanotechnology- Impact of nanotechnology in society

Block 1 (PME): - What are things made of? Reductionism- From classical to modern science- Small is different

Block 4 (RDM): - Development of Surface Science- Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE)

Block 2 (PME): - Feynman’s talk- Manipulation of atoms- DNA

Block 5 (RDM): - Nanostructures of Carbon- Quantum Dots- Other nanomaterials

Block 3 (PME): - Invention of transistor- Miniaturization in electronics

Block 7Student-led seminars on special topics

Seminars should aim to:

- be technically correct- be understood by the audience - be as interactive as possible - be prepared with appropriate support material(short paper, 10-12 pages of text + graphics)

You may conduct joint projects, although individual efforts are recommended.

Both the presentation and the paper will be assessed.

Marks will be based on paper+seminar assessments (deadlines fulfilled!).
