Nano Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET) Fundamental sciences work in soft materials interfaces; synthesis and characterization; nanoscale biological processes; and theory, modeling and simulation More information is available at www.pnl.gov/nano Department of Energy (DOE)-Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) Nanoscience and nanotechnology is a major thrust for the laboratory. By precisely manipulating atoms and molecules-the very building blocks of nature-our research could yield safe, just-in-time sources of hydrogen for a wide range of energy applications, new instruments to observe chemical processes in living cells, and miniaturized sensors to detect pathogens in foods and the environment. Fundamental sciences work includes: soft materials interfaces; synthesis and characterization; nanoscale biological processes; and theory, modeling and simulation. Examples of current research includes: - Nano particle-based Materials for Microanalysis - Synthesis and Characterization of Chemically Tailored Monolithic Nanoporous Thin Films using Molecular Beam Techniques - Organized Nanoclusters of Cooperative Biomolecules - Single-Nanoparticle Characterization using AFM Enhanced Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy - The Synthesis and Characterization of Individual and Hierarchically Structured Nanorod Materials - Modeling of Structure, Flow, and Transport in Nanoscale Systems - Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Nanocrystalline Oxide Film Structures Keywords: Biological sciences-Biochemistry; Materials Sciences-General; Technology-Nanotechnology Resource tags: Resources for science aware citizens Beginning of Bottom Navigation Links | About
