Nanotechnology related web links

If you came here by accident, my main website has a selection of nanotechnology related images and a brief guide to nanotechnology.

Nanoscience Video

• Nanotechnology: The Next Big Thing can be viewed directly online or ordered on video from The Vega Science Trust, who also have a range of other nanotechnology related videos available to view for free on their website including programmes by Sir Harry Kroto.
• EU CORDIS, with two films which are available free of charge on DVD, one aimed at adults, the second for school use. You can order the DVDs via email or fax using these order forms (pdf or Word for the schools film, pdf or Word for the adult one). Alternatively if you have the Real player you can view them online via these links: Nanotechnology, and Nano : The Next Dimension.
• Institute of Nanotechnology CDROM, costs 10 pounds
• Begbrooke Online/CDROM resource
• A selection of other video links from Nanotechnology Now

Nanoscience brochures

• From the EU there is a new brochure, available in English, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Portugese, and German.
• A la découverte du Nanomonde (en Français)
  pdf brochure in French describing current research into nanoscience and nanotechnology with good introduction describing the nanoscale. See also Focus: nanoscience (by the CNRS, in French).
• Nano white papers
  Executive summaries covering many new nanomaterials and the current state of nanoscience.
• Royal Society / Royal Academy of Engineering report on nanotechnology.
• Interactive exhibition at the Science Museum, London.

Nanoscience related images

• Nanotechnology Now
• Institute of Nanotechnology
• Nanotechnology : The Exhibition

Nanoscience related software

• CaGe - really nice fullerene generator
  
• JNano - Steffen Weber's java applet to generate nanotubes and cones
  
• JMol, java based molecular viewer (designed to replace Chime).
  
• V Sim, a freeware visualiser package
  
• Rasmol, the old classic molecular structure viewer
  
• Ernst's nanotube viewer, another java applet.

Miscellaneous other links

• Bad Science: The rather brilliant weekly Guardian column exposing dodgy media coverage of science; only occasionally about nanoscience, but always a good read.
