  • Designing a Nanoelectronic Circuit to Control a Millimeter-Scale Walking Robot
    Designing a Nanoelectronic Circuit to Control a Millimeter-scale Walking Robot Alexander J. Gates November 2004 MP 04W0000312 McLean, Virginia Designing a Nanoelectronic Circuit to Control a Millimeter-scale Walking Robot Alexander J. Gates November 2004 MP 04W0000312 MITRE Nanosystems Group e-mail: [email protected] WWW: http://www.mitre.org/tech/nanotech Sponsor MITRE MSR Program Project No. 51MSR89G Dept. W809 Approved for public release; distribution unlimited. Copyright © 2004 by The MITRE Corporation. All rights reserved. Gates, Alexander Abstract A novel nanoelectronic digital logic circuit was designed to control a millimeter-scale walking robot using a nanowire circuit architecture. This nanoelectronic circuit has a number of benefits, including extremely small size and relatively low power consumption. These make it ideal for controlling microelectromechnical systems (MEMS), such as a millirobot. Simulations were performed using a SPICE circuit simulator, and unique device models were constructed in this research to assess the function and integrity of the nanoelectronic circuit’s output. It was determined that the output signals predicted for the nanocircuit by these simulations meet the requirements of the design, although there was a minor signal stability issue. A proposal is made to ameliorate this potential problem. Based on this proposal and the results of the simulations, the nanoelectronic circuit designed in this research could be used to begin to address the broader issue of further miniaturizing circuit-micromachine systems. i Gates, Alexander I. Introduction The purpose of this paper is to describe the novel nanoelectronic digital logic circuit shown in Figure 1, which has been designed by this author to control a millimeter-scale walking robot.

Daniel Lilly A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Chemical Engineering) in The University of Michigan 2009 Doctoral Committee: Professor Nicholas A. Kotov, Chair Professor Sharon C. Glotzer Professor Xiaoqing Pan Assistant Professor Suljo Linic © G. Daniel Lilly 2009 To my wife, Michelle M. Lilly, Ph.D. To my mother and father, Nancy N. and G. Bud Lilly ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my loving and lovely wife Michelle for her support through the process of obtaining my Ph.D. If not for her support and advice I most likely would not have finished this process. I value her as a friend and partner and am forever appreciative of her actions. I would also like to thank my parents for laying the groundwork in my life to accomplish this. They taught me the value of hard work and persistence when reaching toward your goals, and without these lessons I most likely would not have even gone to graduate school, much less finished. I am appreciative for all the help and support my fellow lab members have given me over the last five years. Former lab members Jaebeom Lee, Zhiyong Tang, Paul Podsiadlo, Bongsup Ship, Jungwoo Lee and Kevin Critchley helped teach me new lab techniques, NP synthesis and conjugation techniques, and numerous analysis procedures, and allowed me a venue to discuss my hypotheses concerning these approaches. Current lab members Meghan Cuddihy, Edward Jan, Peter Ho, Ashish Agarwal, Christine Andres, Jian Zhu, Huanan Zhang, Elizabeth Stewart, Yichun Wang, Inigo Alvarez, Shimei Xu, and Anna Fernandez aided with various collaborations, techniques, procedures, and experiences for which I am grateful.

Nanotechnologies, due to their physicochemical and biological properties, have applications in diverse fields, including drug delivery, sensors, optoelectronics, and magnetic devices. This review focuses on the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using plant sources. Green synthesis of nanoparticles is an eco-friendly approach, which should be further explored for the potential of different plants to synthesize nanoparticles. The sizes of AgNPs are in the range of 1 to 100 nm. Characterization of synthesized nanoparticles is accomplished through UV spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. AgNPs have great potential to act as antimicrobial agents. The green synthesis of AgNPs can be efficiently applied for future engineering and medical concerns. Different types of cancers can be treated and/or controlled by phytonanotechnology. The present review provides a comprehensive survey of plant-mediated
