Abstract:
Nanoscience has, in many ways, grown up in parallel with the Materials Research Society. Although “nanoscience” and “nanotechnology” are buzzwords that were “discovered” in Washington, D.C., and in the capitals of countries around the world a number of years ago, nanoscience has actually been developing for several decades. The emergence of nanoscience as a fascinating and fruitful area of research has occurred primarily for two reasons: (1) materials have new and unpredictable properties at the nanoscale; and (2) it is now possible to make things controllably on the nanoscale and to see them.

Abstract:
AbstractScientific events are rarely discussed in the formation and development of new fields of science. Using the example of the Swiss NanoConvention, it will be shown to what extent a long series of events shapes the Swiss nanosciences and is shaped by them. The convention offers the opportunity to both, present and legitimize new forms of science and research to heterogeneous publics, and to consolidate internal structures of the field. The analysis thus provides insight into the contours of nanoscience.

Abstract:
AbstractIn recent years, a new branch of nanoscience/nanotechnology seems to be emerging. This branch is characterized by the application of preparation methods and/or the diagnostic tools developed in nanoscience/nanotechnology in order to perform either new, decisive experiments or to open the way to novel applications in areas of science that were originally not related to nanoscience/nanotechnology, such as cancer research or quantum physics. In order to highlight the diversity of this new branch, we shall discuss the following four areas in which methods of nanoscience/nanotechnology are applied to other areas of science: (1) cancer therapy, (2) cellular labeling, (3) the synthesis of solid materials with tunable atomic structures, and (4) the new opportunities provided by nanoscience/nanotechnology to probe the limits of quantum physics, one of the classical problems of physics.

Abstract:
This article briefly reviews the development of surface science and its close relevance to nanoscience and heterogeneous catalysis. The focus of this article is to highlight the importance of nanoscale surface science for understanding heterogeneous catalysis performing at solid–gas and solid–liquid interfaces. Surface science has built a foundation for the understanding of catalysis based on the studies of well-defined single-crystal catalysts in the past several decades. Studies of catalysis on well-defined nanoparticles (NPs) significantly promoted the understanding of catalytic mechanisms to an unprecedented level in the last decade. To understand reactions performed on catalytic active sites at nano or atomic scales and thus reach the goal of catalysis by design, studies of the surface of nanocatalysts are crucial. The challenges in such studies are discussed.

Abstract:
Nanotechnology is the art and science of manipulating matter at the nanoscale (down to 1/100,000 the width of a human hair) to create new and unique materials and products. Nanotechnology has enormous potential to change society. An estimated global research and development investment of nearly $9 billion per year is anticipated to lead to new medical treatments and tools; more efficient energy production, storage and transmission; better access to clean water; more effective pollution reduction and prevention; and stronger, lighter materials. And these are just a few of the more significant ways in which people are discussing using the technology. In this chapter we discussing about emerging application of nanoscience.

Abstract:
Nous examinons une question que l'avènement des nanotechnologies rend de plus en plus pressante pour la philosophie des sciences. Elle prend les allures d'une critique de cette dernière en se fondant sur quelques théories philosophiques, représentatives et suffisamment originales sur la science, développées par Thomas Kuhn, Imre Lakatos, Ian Hacking et Serge Robert. Les différents discours sur les nanos et plus précisément le concept de nanotechnologie se sont révélés, à tout le moins, polysémiques et décrivent parfois prématurément une activité qui n'existe pas encore. Ainsi, nous avons requalifié le concept de nanotechnologie en « nanotechnoscience ». Puis nous avons confronté les philosophies des sciences que nous avons retenues aux fins de les mettre à l'épreuve de ce qui apparaît comme un impensé de leurs philosophies, notamment la dimension technologique de la science souvent connue et reconnue, mais « sous-traitée » et reléguée au mieux au second plan. Nos recherches ont donc porté sur chacune des philosophies que nous avons annoncées, sur les nanotechnosciences elles-mêmes, la philosophie de la technologie, mais aussi sur celle naissante des technosciences et des nanotechnosciences sans oublier notre ouverture à des fins heuristiques sur la philosophie du langage d'Austin et la praxéologie de Denis Vernant. Dans cette étude, nous avons traité d'étymologie, d'histoire du préfixe nano et de définition. Puis, nous avons examiné attentivement les différentes philosophies des sciences par lesquelles il nous a paru pertinent d'examiner les nanotechnosciences émergentes afin de voir ce qui dans ces doctrines permettrait d'envisager une réflexion philosophique sur les nanos. Sachant que ces pensées privilégient la représentation sur l'intervention, nous nous sommes posés la question de la place de la technologie dans ces systèmes philosophiques avec l'idée que la technologie est une condition nécessaire quoique non suffisante de toute philosophie à prétention technoscientifique ou nanotechnoscientifique. C'est dans cette optique que nous avons sollicité la théorie des paradigmes, puis celle du falsificationnisme sophistiqué revu et corrigé par le correctionnisme de Robert avant de tenter l'interventionnisme de Hacking. Nous avons pu constater l'omniprésence de la technologie tout comme l'hétérogénéité de la place qui lui est accordée dans ces théories philosophiques. Ainsi de Kuhn à Hacking, la reconnaissance du rôle et de la place de la technologie va crescendo, au point de nous inviter à penser les nanotechnosciences en termes d'« actes de discours ». L'enchevêtrement ou l'entrelacement entre science et technologie nous a inspiré deux analogies : la première avec l'idée de « contexte de performance oral » de Mamoussé Diagne analogue elle-même à la seconde, la performativité introduite et initiée par les réflexions d'Austin sur le discours ordinaire. Notre investigation prend les allures d'une mise à l'épreuve de toutes ces philosophies à l'aune de la place qu'occupe la technologie dans leurs systèmes respectifs. Nous avons eu recours à l'analyse comparative des discours philosophiques sur la science ainsi que ce que nous avons appris sur les pratiques scientifiques, le tout complété par une approche lexicométrique basée sur le corpus des principaux ouvrages de Kuhn, Lakatos, Robert et Hacking. Notre démarche nous a amené à mettre en cause l'étymologie du préfixe nano trop hâtivement attribuée au grec alors qu'il serait plus à propos de la considérer comme latine, puis nous avons tenté d'établir l'idée que les « nanotechnologies » n'existent pas et que ce que l'on appelle bien souvent ainsi relève d'un abus de langage et d'une sorte d'anachronisme inversée. De cette critique nous avons tenté de tirer des leçons qui ont inspiré la requalification conceptuelle de l'activité qu'est censé désigner ce morphème en « nanotechnoscience » que nous avons redéfini en tenant compte de plusieurs facteurs déterminants
This thesis focuses on the consideration of a question that the advent of what is called nanotechnology makes it increasingly urgent to philosophy in general and the philosophy of science in particular because of the inexistence of the “nanotechnology” stricto sensu, the lack of good definition and the default of something like a “nanophilosophy”. We critique the latter based on some philosophical, representative and sufficiently original theories of science, developed by Thomas Kuhn, Imre Lakatos, Ian Hacking and Serge Robert. Different discourses on nanos and more specifically the concept of nanotechnology proved, at least, polysemous and sometimes describe an activity which in the strict sense does not exist prematurely. Thus, we have reclassified the concept of nanotechnology "nanotechnoscience" and proposed a more rigorous definition emphasizing the hybrid nature of this activity, both theoretical and practical, scientific and technological. Then we compared the philosophies of science that we have selected to make them confront what appears to be an unthought of their philosophies, including the technological dimension of science often known and recognized, but "outsourced" and relegated to better secondary. Our research has therefore focused on each of the philosophies that we announced on the nanotechnosciences themselves, philosophy of technology, but also on emerging technosciences and nanotechnoscience not forgetting our opening for heuristic purposes on the philosophy of language of Austin and praxeology of Denis Vernant. Then, we carefully examined the different philosophies of science which seemed appropriate to consider the emerging nanotechnosciences so as to see what in these doctrines would help envisaging a philosophical reflection on the Nano. Knowing that these thoughts favor representing rather than intervening, we questioned the role of technology in these philosophical systems with the idea that technology is a necessary though not sufficient condition for any claim of technoscientific or nanotechnoscientific philosophy. It is in this context that we solicited the paradigms theory, then the sophisticated falsificationism reviewed and corrected by Robert's correctionism before attempting interventionism Hacking's interventionism. During this exercise we have seen the pervasiveness of technology as well as the heterogeneity of the place it is granted in these philosophical theories. The entanglement or intertwining between science and technology inspired us two analogies: the first with the idea of "context of oral performance" by Mamoussé Diagne, analogous itself to the second, performativity introduced and initiated by Austin's reflections on ordinary language. Our investigation takes on the appearance of a testing of all these philosophies in terms of the place of technology in their respective systems. To achieve this, we resorted to the comparative analysis of philosophical discourse on science and what we have learned about scientific practices, complemented by a lexicometric approach based on the corpus of the principal works published from Kuhn, Lakatos, Robert and Hacking. From our critique we have tried to draw lessons that inspired the conceptual requalification of the activity that this morpheme is intended to mean into "nanotechnoscience" which we have redefined. This established at the end of this analysis, we could say that neither the philosophy of Kuhn or Lakatos, nor that of Robert leave enough space for technology to position itself as philosophies of technosciences. The one which seems the most appropriate is the interventionism defended by Hacking, but which Gilbert Hottois criticized for not having taken the step that would have led to a philosophy of authentic technosciences. It was then that tracks to Bacon and Peirce are suggested respectively by Hacking and Schmidt and Nordmann

Full text
Abstract:

Mesoporous silicate have widespread potential applications, such as drug delivery, supports for catalysis, selective adsorption and host to guest molecules. Most important in the area of scientific research and industrial applications is their demand due to its extremely high surface areas (> 800m 2g−1) and larger pores with well defined structures.

Mesoporous silicate (MCM-41) samples were prepared by hydrothermal method under various chemo-physical conditions and various experimental methods such as small angle X-rays scattering (SAXS), Nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis at 77 K, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to investigate the changes in the structural morphology and subtle lattice parameter changes. With regards to the subtle changes in the structural characteristics of the synthesized mesoporous silicate, we seek to understand the electron density function changes as the synthesis parameter are varied from low molar concentration of ATAB/Si to higher concentration, the system becoming more acidity due to increase in the hydrolysis time of pH regulator as a result of increased production of ethanol and acetic acid and the changes due to extended reaction time.

This Ph.D. research tries to understand the influence of various parameters like surfactant-Si molar ratio, reaction time, and the hydrolysis of the pH regulator on the orderliness/disorderliness of the lattice order, lattice spacing and electron density function. The stages during synthesis are carefully selected to better understand where the greater influence on the overall structural morphology exist so as to be able to ne tune this parameter for any desired specification and application.

The SAXS measurement were conducted on a HECUS S3-Micro X-ray system at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY. while the data evaluation and visualization were carried in 3DView 4.2 and EasySWAXS software. The electron density functions were generated with a proprietary software called edens.

In this dissertation, the following observations have been revealed resulting from SAXS measurement.

1. As one increases the hydrolysis duration of ethyl acetate, a gradual collapse of the lattice spacing of the mesoporous silcate MCM-41 is observed. We found from SAXS that there is a slight right shift of the spectra toward the higher q-values indicating that we are gradually losing orderliness in the lattice spacing and hexagonal structure of the mesoporous silica. Also, the intensity of the peak of second and third peaks are diminutive when compared to sample with shorter hydrolysis time.

2. A comparison of the SAXS spectra for the different molar concentration sample reveals that the 0:5M samples shows a deteriorating structural characteristics as compared to the 0:25 and 0:75M samples respectively and a clear decrease in the (100) reflection planes. Also noticed is the slight rightward shift in the overall spectrum prole. This observation suggest that further analysis is needed so as to better understand the result.

3. We establish that during MCM-41 synthesis, longer reaction time is needed to produce quality sample with well defined structurally characteristic for its intended application because according to spectrum for the sample with a longer reaction time (aging), a shift towards the lower q-values indicates that a sample with a larger lattice parameter and wall thickness but the intensities of its peak are diminishing when compared to the other of relatively shorter reaction time.

Other complementary techniques were used to corroborated the result obtained from SAXS. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis at 77K was used to generate the isotherms while B.E.T method was used in conjunction with the isotherms to obtained the very important surface area information. SEM provide a visual structural morphology of the samples and FTIR gave the fingerprint detail of the bonds and vibration types between particle present.

Abstract:
This thesis offers a mixed-method exploratory investigation of global scientific mobility. Contextualised as an important factor in the development of national capacities in science and innovation, global scientific mobility has so far remained a relatively underdeveloped subject in current scholarship. In this doctoral research, the focus on the impact of global scientific mobility that entails change of affiliation on (1) research practice, in particular, boundaries of academic activities, and (2) career development trajectories, increasingly affected by globalisation, is assumed. This research responds to the interest among academic and policy communities in the role of human resources in science-driven economic growth. It integrates three sets of literature, encompassing systems approach to studying learning and innovation; transnational approach to migration studies, and social studies of science that focus on academic citizenship, to explain global transformations in scientific mobility flows across countries and regions; and the post-migration impact of scientists in host organisations and communities. Empirically, this research focuses on career trajectories and elements of academic practice of Russian-speaking nanoscientists educated in post-Soviet countries and working abroad. The Soviet Union was an internationally isolated research system and developed peculiar norms of organisation, communication and governance of science. After the breakdown, post-Soviet countries experienced large-scale human capital flight. Nanotechnology is a generic technology, thought to aggregate advanced use-inspired areas of physics, chemistry and engineering. Around the world, nanotechnology has significant political importance. Policy and public-driven emerging technology agendas reveal contribution of competent post-Soviet scientists, but also elicit differences in approaches and rewards. This study finds significant transformations in scientific mobility flows caused by globalisation-induced opportunities. As relocation becomes easier to accomplish, scientists increasingly build their careers not only in multiple organisations, but also in multiple countries. At the same time, national differences in career development paths and norms of academic community membership have significant influence on career development opportunities of scientists. However, unique skills developed during mobility open up alternative options for globally mobile Russian-speaking nanoscientists, such as engagement in transnational science diaspora networks. This research contributes to understanding of scientific mobility as a simultaneous, continuous, network-based process. It further provides insight into development of multidisciplinary research area that encompasses broader understanding of roles, activities, contributions and opportunities of foreign-born scientists in the globalising world.

Full text
Abstract:

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are materials with significant potential applications due to their desirable mechanical and electronic properties, which can both vary based on their structure. Electronic applications for CNTs are still few and not widely available, mainly due to the difficulty in the control of fabrication. Carbon nanotubes are grown in batches, but despite many years of research from their first discovery in 1991, there are still many unanswered questions regarding how to control the structure of CNTs. This work attempts to bridge some of the gap between question and answer by focusing on the catalyst particle used in common CNT growth procedures. Ostwald ripening studies on iron nanoparticles are performed in an attempt to link catalyst morphology during growth and CNT chirality (the structure aspect of a nanotube that determines its electrical properties). These results suggest that inert gas dynamics play a critical role on the catalyst morphology during CNT growth. A novel method for CNT catalyst activation by substrate manipulation is presented. Results of this study build upon prior knowledge of the role of the chemistry of the substrate supporting CNT catalysts. By bombarding sapphire, a substrate known to not support CNT growth, with an argon ion beam, the substrate is transformed into an active CNT growth support by modifying both the structure and chemistry of the sapphire surface. Finally, catalyst formation is studied with transmission electron microscopy by depositing an iron gradient film in order to identify a potential critical catalyst size and morphology for CNT growth. A relationship between catalyst size and morphology has been identified that adds evidence to the hypothesis that a catalysts activity is determined by its size and ability to properly reduce.

Full text
Abstract:

The nematic phases of liquid crystals have been the most thoroughly investigated since the founding of the liquid crystal field in the early 1900’s. The resulting technologies, most notably the liquid crystal display, have changed our world and spawned an entire industry. Consequently, the recent identification of a new type of nematic – the twist-bend nematic – was met with as much surprise as excitement, as it melds the fluid properties and environmental responsiveness of conventional nematics with the intrinsic polarization and complex ordering of bent-core liquid crystals. I summarize the history of the twist-bend nematic phase, charting the development of our understanding from its first identification to the present day. Furthermore, I enumerate and highlight my own efforts in the field to characterize the behavior and nanoscale organization of the twist-bend phase.

Full text
Abstract:

Characterization of magnetic domain structure is essential to understand and manipulate the magnetic properties of materials. In this thesis, we have utilized Lorentz Transmission Electron Microscopy (LTEM) in combination with image simulations based on micromagnetic models, to investigate the magnetic domain structure of a unique nano-chessboard structure consisting of L1 0 and L12 phases in a Co40Pt60 alloy. We have shown high-resolution LTEM images of nano-size magnetic features acquired through spherical aberration correction in Lorentz Fresnel mode. Phase reconstructions based on the transport of intensity equation has been carried out to fully understand the magnetic domain structure and to extract quantitative information, including direction of magnetic induction and magnetic domain wall width, from the Lorentz TEM images. The experimental Fresnel images of the nano-chessboard structure show zig-zag shaped magnetic domain walls at the inter-phase boundaries between L10 and L12 phases. A circular magnetization distribution with vortex and anti-vortex type arrangement is evident in the phase reconstructed magnetic induction maps as well as simulated maps. The magnetic contrast in experimental LTEM images has been properly interpreted with the help of magnetic induction maps simulated for various relative electron beam-sample orientations inside TEM. Apart from the nano-chessboard structure, this alloy shows other interesting microstructural features such as anti-phase boundaries, tweed structure, coarse L10 plates, and macro-twins all of which have been characterized using conventional bright field/dark field TEM imaging and compared with their respective Lorentz TEM images. The magnetic domain wall widths obtained for each microstructure has been compared and the influence of microstructure and the particle size on wall widths has been discussed.

Full text
Abstract:

In light of their escalating exposure to possible environmental toxicants, there are many biological systems that need to be evaluated in a resource and time efficient manner. Understanding how toxicants behave in relation to their physicochemical properties and within complex biological media is especially important toward developing a stronger scientific foundation of these systems so that adequate regulatory decisions may be made. While there are many emerging methods available for the detection and characterization of these chemicals, nanotechnology has presented itself as a promising alternative toward creating more efficient assays. In particular, metallic nanoparticles and thin films exhibit unique optical properties that allow for highly sensitive and multiplexed studies to be performed. These plasmonic materials often preclude the use of molecular tags and labels, enabling direct characterizations and enhancing the throughput of biomolecular studies. However, their lack of specificity toward certain targets and potential toxicity has thus far precluded their widespread use in toxicity testing.

The cell membrane, a natural signal transducer, represents one of the fundamental structures for biological recognition and communication. These interfaces principally function as a selective barrier to exogenous materials, including ions, signaling molecules, growth factors, and toxins; therefore, understanding interactions at membrane interfaces is a vital step in elucidating how biological responses are effected. Supported lipid bilayers, which may easily be tailored in composition and complexity, are ideal interfaces for coupling to plasmonic assays since they may be supported in close proximity to metallic nanoparticles and thin films, where measurements are most sensitive. This research will focus on the coupling of plasmonic materials and biomimetic interfaces to increase the sensitivity, efficiency, and throughput of conventional toxicity assays. The fabrication of new plasmonic materials for membrane-based assays is presented, as well as method developments in membrane array formation and opportunities for hyphenation with complementary analytical techniques.
