Welcome to my Intro to Nanotechnology ePortfolio. In this class I expanded my knowledge of physics, chemistry, materials engineering, and nanoscale technology. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I've learned in this class an hope to change my concentration for my Bachelor's into Nanoscale Engineering with a minor in Biological Engineering.

Below you'll find the signature assignments that I have completed in the course.

Nanotechnology is the study of materials and devices at the nanoscale, which is about 1 to 100 nanometers in size. This is the scale of atoms and molecules, so nanotechnology allows us to manipulate matter at the very smallest level.

One of the most important things I learned in the course is that the properties of materials can change dramatically at the nanoscale. This is because the size of a material can affect its electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. For example, gold is a good conductor of electricity at the macroscopic scale, but it becomes a much better conductor at the nanoscale.

Another important thing I learned is that nanotechnology has the potential to revolutionize many different industries. For example, nanotechnology could be used to create new drugs that are more effective and have fewer side effects. It could also be used to develop new sensors that can detect diseases at an earlier stage. In addition, nanotechnology could be used to create new materials that are stronger, lighter, and more energy-efficient.

I am very excited about the potential of nanotechnology to improve our lives. I believe that this field has the potential to solve some of the world's biggest problems, such as cancer, climate change, and energy scarcity. I am looking forward to seeing how nanotechnology develops in the years to come.
