9. Basis for Grade in the Course
Your grade in the course is based
on 2 factors:
1) class attendance
2)grade earned on the paper
assigned.
10. A 1-2 page paper in English is to be turned in to Prof.
Hermann by the end of the last lecture. Both a hard
copy and a digital copy emailed to
allen.hermann@colorado.edu
are required.
This paper should be in your own words.
The paper could contain one or more figures and/or
tables.
The subject matter should be either
1) a tutorial explaining clearly one topic from this
course (in greater detail than given in the course), or
2) a clear description of your own research related
to the subject of this course.
11. Your grade will be calculated as follows:
Attendance- 40% ( 5.71 % per class attended)
Grade for paper- 60%

34. What is Nanotechnology?
• Research and technology development at the atomic, molecular
or macromolecular levels, in the length scale of approximately 1
- 100 nanometers.
• Creating and using structures, devices and systems that have
novel properties and functions because of their small and/or
intermediate size.
• Ability to control processes at a few nm-range for advanced
material processing and manufacturing.

58. For absorption,
energy of photon absorbed goes
as 1/L2,
smaller particle absorbs larger
energy photon, who’s wavelength
is smaller (toward blue), and longer
wavelength photons (toward red)
are transmitted.
59. Figure 7.2. Solutions of quantum dots of varying size. Note the variation
in color of each solution illustrating the particle size dependence of the
optical absorption for each sample. Note that the smaller particles are in
the red solution (absorbs blue), and that the larger ones are in the blue
(absorbs red).
60.
61. For light scattering,
the photon wavelength must be
smaller than the particle size, and
the smaller particles tend to
scatter only the shorter
wavelength photons (toward blue)

substrate is immersed into a dilute solution of a surface-active
material that adsorbs onto the surface and organizes via a self-

molecular monolayer. (Adapted from Ref. 9 by permission of
