"As conventional chip electronics continue to shrink, Moore's Law is on a collision course with the laws of physics. Excessive heating and defective device operation arise at the nanoscale. What we've been able to do is combine conventional CMOS technology with nanoscale switching devices in a hybrid circuit to increase effective transistor density, reduce power dissipation, and dramatically improve tolerance to defective devices."
--Stan Williams, Senior Fellow, Hewlett-Packard Labs.
"Nano will allow us to create value and wealth for the U.S. to continue our growth. Nanotechnology represents two things: first, a very distinct possibility of creating cures, treatments and diagnosis for all the terrible ailments that people are facing because they are living longer, and secondly, it's creating an environment where the U.S. can maintain its lead in the world in innovation, creating new jobs so citizens can feed their families, and having higher standards of living and a stable economy."
Bernie Marcus, Founder, The Home Depot
Richard Dawkins has said, "When two opposite points of view are expressed with equal intensity, the truth does not necessarily lie exactly halfway between them. It is possible for one side to be simply wrong."
"The future is not a roulette wheel that we sit back and watch as worried spectators. It's a matter of work. We should see the risks, see the possibilities, and do what we can to make sure that future outcomes are the ones that we desire." Jeffrey Sachs, director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University

From Nanotech in the Big Picture
When CRN was founded five years ago, our intent was to assist in establishing the technical feasibility of molecular manufacturing, to mount a convincing argument that it would be a disruptive, transformative technology, and to raise awareness of the potential imminence of its arrival. Now we need to step back and look at the bigger picture. Read the Whole Article

From NanoArt Pioneers - Interview with Hugh McGrory
"NanoArt does not really need a definition. What needs to be stressed about it is that it is examining an area that will define the 21st Century, an area that will grow exponentially and change the way we think about the world. The images created in science labs (taken at the nanoscale) are NanoArt if they are presented as art." - Hugh McGrory Read the Whole Article

From Nanotechnology and renewable energy
Developed and developing nations have different drivers for adoption of renewable energy. While there is a strong push in western nations for clean technologies though government intervention, in developing nations choices are based on economics. In this context, photovoltaic technology stands out among its competitors due to its significant cost reduction potential. Technology upgradation will play a major role is achieving the target of "grid parity" for photovoltaics Read the Whole Article

From Water for Poor
As water resources continue to be depleted, access to clean water and sanitation in developing countries remains a high priority. Scientists and nanotechnologists are rising to the challenge of making water remediation more efficient and cost effective. But is science enough? Will the poor receive the benefit of the technologies that have the capabilities of changing their world? Read the Whole Article
