Dmitri's Introduction to Nanoworld
Curious about the nanoworld?
The stories on this site are about a part of nanoworld that lies somewhere between the "wizardry"
of futuristic nanomachines
or built atom-by-atom quantum corrals
and "gadgets" from the familiar world of microelectronics.
Wonder who is Dmitri to talk about nanotechnology? Take a look at my resume.
My current interest is primarily in application of nanotechnology for biosensors.A few years ago however, I earned my Ph. D. studying nanostructures as a member of a UW-Madison research group.
Those included silicon templates with nanometer-scale steps, self-assembled arrays of nanowires and dots,
and quasi one-dimensional materials.
The links below will take you to see these nanostructures.
And, as always, please let me know if something does not work.
Dmitri's Research Projects
CaF2 Nanostructures
Surface 1D Structures
STM Chemical Imaging
STM Image Processing
Spin-Polarized STM
Tunneling in Insulators
Quick Overview of Tools & Techniques
STM Basics
Photoemission
Dmitri's best guess for the difficulty of material:
the first 3 "projects" and both "quick overviews" maybe of more general interest.
The last 4 "projects" are more specialized, but all include illustrations
and general introductions.
Links page lists selected sites with information on nanostructures,
ideas on their real-life applications and, of course, pretty STM pictures.
