The Nanoparticle Network

Nanoscale materials are objects with one dimension less than about 20nm in size. Such exotic materials display unique, size-dependent properties (called "quantum size effects"). These materials will form the basis for many of the technological advances of the 21st Century. "The Nanoparticle Network" is a consortium dedicated to the exploration of different nanoscale materials and the origin of quantum size effects. The Network aims to enhance the uptake of all types of nanoparticle based technologies through an integrated network of scientists and engineers in conjunction with industry partners and government research institutions.
