Introduction Individuals have invented a variety of things to assist people from many fields in this age of exponential technological advancement. Nanotechnology is one of those fields for me, there are still a lot to learn and discover. Nanotechnology, in my opinion, is the study of science, engineering, and technology at the nanoscale, which is measured in nanometers (about 1 to 100 nanometers). Existing industrial processes, materials, and applications are improved by scaling them down to the nanoscale, in order to fully harness the unique quantum and surface phenomena that matter shows at the nanoscale. Nanotechnology engineering is concerned with nanoscale materials and their interactions in order to create usable materials, structures, and technologies. Nanostructuring, nanopatterning, and even 3D printing are all involved. The semiconductor business, whose device architectures have reached the single nanometer scale, is a prime nanotechnology example of an industry where nanoscale manufacturing technologies are used on a wide scale and throughout. It's difficult to comprehend the scale of nanotechnology. Nanoscience and nanotechnology involve the ability to observe and control individual atoms and molecules on a billionth of a meter scale.. Nanoscience and nanotechnology are the study and application of extremely small objects, and they can be applied in chemistry, biology, physics, materials science, and engineering, among other subjects.). In medicine, environmental remediation, water filtration, nanoelectronics, food and agriculture, cosmetics, energy and batteries, space and aeronautics, automotive industries, displays, sports equipment, and many other fields, nanotechnology is used in some form or shape as things like surface coatings, sensors, electronic components, membranes, and so on. One of the requirements for using nanotechnology is that all phases be completed in a sealed environment known as a clean room. To clarify, a cleanroom is a sterile environment in which items are made. It's a space where the concentration of airborne particles is kept under certain limits. Sub-micron airborne pollution removal is essentially a control process. People, processes, facilities, and equipment all contribute to the creation of these toxins. They must be kept out of the air at all times. Contamination can only be controlled by controlling the entire environment. All air flow rates and directions, as well as pressurization, temperature, humidity, and specialist filtration, must be precisely managed. And, whenever possible, the sources of these particles must be regulated or eliminated. A clean room is more than just air filters. Cleanrooms are designed and built according to precise guidelines and procedures. They're common in the electronics, pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, medical device, and other essential manufacturing industries. Once established, a cleanroom must be maintained and cleaned to the same exacting standards. Because a clean room is a place with stringent requirements for research purposes, each individual must put on a protective suit before entering the room to prevent bacteria from entering. At the same time, we was allowed to walk through a tiny room to disinfect our entire body outside the suit. All of the foregoing precautions are in place to safeguard the manufacturing equipment and materials from outside contamination; this is understandable given that we are conducting research at the nanoscale, which should not be susceptible to bacterial infection. Fabrication The clean room will have distinct equipment for nanotechnology research and use, which will normally include five devices: a photolithography machine, a sputtering machine, chemical fume hood, thermal evaporation and a chemical vapor deposition machine. Now I will explain the concept and use, application of each type of device. Download 19.79 Kb. Share with your friends:
