This webinar, provided by the Micro Nano Technology Education Center (MNT-EC), explores micro nano technology education. In the webinar, Tanya Faltens discusses the nanoHUB simulation environment and demonstrates how educators can use and navigate nanoHUB. First, Faltens describes nanoHUB, which is...

This 2-page lab, from Pennsylvania State University, provides an overview of the values, gauges, and components of a thermal evaporator. The lab also shows how metal is deposited using a Cooke Thermal Evaporator. Students will need to view the linked video to answer the 17 questions that are...

This 4-page lab activity, from the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Resource Center (NACK Center), provides an overview and demonstration of the procedures necessary to perform contact lithography. Sections of the lab include Objective, Background, Experiment, and Questions. The...

This webinar, published by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support (NACK) Center at Pennsylvania State University, is the first of a two-part lecture on X-ray diffraction (XRD) for characterization. During this part of the lecture, Dr. Peter Kazarinoff from Portland Community...

Collection description: This collection, from the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support (NACK) Center at Pennsylvania State University, includes modules that introduce various aspects of nanotechnology. The modules are "designed to be used in workshops, courses, and overview...

This 4-page lab guide, created by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support (NACK) Center at Pennsylvania State University, is for a laboratory activity where students use an ion implanation simulation software to demonstrate the effects of ion implantation. Throughout the lab,...

This webinar, provided by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support (NACK) Center at Pennsylvania State University, discusses the concepts of ion implantation, thermal oxidation, and atomic layer deposition. During the webinar, Dr. Atilla Ozgur Cakmak from Pennsylvania State...

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure, introduces students to the difficulty to of measuring at the nanoscale. Accuracy and precision are the most important principles or measuring at such a small scale, and with the growing demand for nanotechnology careers,...

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure, covers the concept of material properties. During this lab, students will learn about microfluidics and how "with one drop of liquid sample, small devices and channels can be used with nanoparticles for sensitive...

This article, written by researchers from the University of Hull in the United Kingdom, details the efforts these individuals to engage secondary students in nanotechnology fields. As such, researchers conducted a lab-on-a-chip workshop for students that included hands-on activities that "explained...
