Throughout the course, we will lift the fogs of these superficial discussions and through hands-on activities get closer to grasp the world of the small. We will build our own simple DIY (do-it-yourself) optical and electronic instruments to learn more about nanoparticles and nanosensors, how to “see” them, how to “hear” them.

Šmall is Beautiful
“Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It take
a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction.”

Atomic Force Microscope (AFM)
Typical AFM setup. A microfabricated cantilever with a sharp tip is deflected by features
on a sample surface, much like in a phonograph but on a much smaller scale.
