What exactly is nanotechnology? How does it work? And how might it benefit-or endanger-humankind? This program considers those and other questions as it addresses a range of topics such as nanoscale units of measurement, the special properties of nanoparticles, the gecko and lotus effects, carbon nanotubes, surface energy, and hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces. Special sections on the use of lasers in nanotechnology and issues raised by nanotechnology are included, along with short interviews on various aspects of nanotechnology, like nanoscale chemical analysis and careers in the nanotechnology field. Viewable/printable educational resources are available online. (26 minutes).
