WHAT IS NANO-TECH?
Nanotechnology refers to technologies that operate at the
nanometre level (one billionth of a meter). Nanotechnology is
a growing scientific field with applications in many different
areas, including in electrical & electronics.

IMPROVEMENTS OF
NANOTECHNOLOGIES
Metallic conductors
Electric insulation properties
Miniaturizing of design, reduction of used material, higher
reliability

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMV)

Elongation of life-time period and long term efficiency

NANO MATERIALS
Carbon Nanotubes and Fullerenes
Quantum Dots
Silver Nanoparticles

CARBON NANOTUBES
They take the form of
cylindrical carbon molecules
and have novel properties that
make them potentially useful in
a wide variety of applications in
nanotechnology, electronics,
optics and other fields of
materials science.

QUANTUM DOTS
Quantum dots are very
powerful devices and its
their size that gives them a
unique ability: to convert
light into nearly any colour
in the visible spectrum with
very high efficiency.

SILVER NANOPARTICLES
are nanoparticles of silver of

between 1nm and 100nm in size.

While frequently described as
being 'silver' some are composed
of a large percentage of silver
oxide due to their large ratio of
surface-to-bulk silver atoms.
Numerous shapes of nanoparticles
can be constructed depending on
the application at hand. Commonly
used are spherical silver
nanoparticles but diamond,
octagonal and thin sheets are also
popular.
