Nanoelectronics, Pavilion of Knowledge (Portugal), May 20-21, 2011

03.7.2011
Flexible and transparent electronics: An impossible dream or a future reality? We will explore the numerous applications of nanotechnology in the world of electronics.

Something more about the use of nanotechnology in electronics…

Nanokit

The nanokit allows you to explore the world of nanoscience and nanotechnology
through interactive and exciting activities.

Nanofabrication – What tools to use?!

What kinds of instruments are used in nanofabrication? Do you think that
miniaturization is enough? Or we have to think in a new concept?

A special battery

The biological batteries operate on the same principle of the Volta’s battery,
in this case by generating the electrical power from biofluids.
We saw how the biological batteries can be constructed from electrospining
fibers, and built a Voltas’s battery to understant how it works.

An invisible metal

A zinc oxide transparent nanolayer can act as an electrical conductor! This is
transparent electronics!

A window that changes its colour

The electrochromatic properties are given by the deposition of several
nanolayers. We made an electronic device that changes its colour, and built a 3D
model to understand how these nanolayers work!
