NANOTECHNOLOGY: The World Beyond Micro explores the world of nano dimensions and a growing number of engineered nanomaterials. The film looks at how the property of materials changes due to the effects of a high surface to volume ratio and quantum mechanics. Viewers are taken to industrial sites to see the large-scale production of carbon nanotubes and the production of specialized Kentera polymers in nano-enhanced composites. We also see how gold nanoparticles are made for research and used in tumor ablation and how paramagnetic nanoparticles are used in cancer marker biosensors. The film also looks at Atomic Layer Deposition, ALD, a process Intel uses in nanoscale IC fabrication.
