Science Nation: Check Out the Assembly Line of the Future

Gloved hand holding a round plastic object and putting an electronic chip into it. Caption: to incorporate nanotechnologies into the process.

There’s no shortage of ideas about how to use nanotechnology, but one of the major hurdles is how to manufacture some of the new products on a large scale. With support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), UMass Amherst chemical engineer Jim Watkins and his team are working to make nanotechnology more practical for industrial scale manufacturing. Part of the National Science Foundation Series “Science Nation.”
