COURSE DESCRIPTION

Nano technology is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. In 21 century, the importance of nano technology increases as it may be able to create many new materials and devices with a vast range of applications, such as in electronics, biomaterials, medicine and other industries.

This course provides the students with the fundamental principles of new nano materials, devices. The mechanisms of the manufacture of nano materials is addressed, and the application of nano materials and nano technology to paper industry will be described.
