S&T breakthroughs underpin Grand Challenges (examples of novel concepts targeted by NNI in 2000 “in 20-30 years”)
Library of Congress in a “one cubic cm” memory device: target 30-40 atoms (2000); Realized 12-atom structure (IBM, 2012), DNA structure (Harvard, 2012; in “one cubic mm”). “Millions times smaller”
Exploit nano-photonics: change direction and frequency of light (2004, then succession of solutions); negative diffraction of light / electrons in meta-metamaterials (2004) & 2D mat (2007). “New phenomena and devices”
Molecular cancer detection and treatment (first gold-shells, Rice, 2002 -2016 many other solutions in progress) “Not possible before”
Quasi-frictionless nanocomponents: quantum fluctuations between selected material surfaces (first Harvard, 2008). “Almost frictionless”

S&T breakthroughs underpin Grand Challenges (examples of novel concepts targeted by NNI in 2000 “in 20-30 years”)
The promised smallest transistor in 2000 100 nm; realized 1nm in 2016 (Desei et al., Science, Stanford U): “Hundred times smaller”
Quantum communication at room temperature with few photons (STC Harvard, Westervelt et al. 2014): “Single photon memory device”
Promised to develop a predictive approach with case studies for nanotoxicity: “UC CEIN Predictive Toxicological Platforms”

Formulation nano-ELSI and establish International nano-ELSI: “ASU and UCSB international CNS platform”
Mass-media dissemination of nanotechnology in society: “NCLT; NISE; NBC videos; Nano-Generation” MC Roco, Dec 12 2016

I. Nanotechnology-inspired Grand Challenge “Brain like computing”
combining National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI), National Strategic Computing Initiative (NSCI) & BRAIN Initiative
• Nanotechnology-Inspired Grand Challenge for Future Computing (DOD, DARPA, DOE, IARPA, NSF), announced by OSTP on Oct 21, 2015: http://www.nano.gov/futurecomputing
• Purpose: “Create a new type of computer that can proactively interpret and learn from data, solve unfamiliar problems using what it has learned, and operate with the energy efficiency of the human brain.”
Also: pattern recognition, human like simultaneous perception of information from various sources including the five senses, intelligence from the bottom with materials that compute (like tissues & neuromorphics), simultaneous actions, natural communication.

Water Sustainability through Nanotechnology
Research thrusts
• Increase water availability (ex: double the throughput membrane separation systems within 5 years)
• Improve the efficiency of water delivery and use (ex: Develop within 5 years nanotechnology-enabled coatings that reduce by 50% the amount of energy)
• Enable the next-generation water monitoring systems with nanotechnology (ex: continuous, real-time measurement of water quality that are more sensitive, more reliable, use sensors)
MC Roco, Dec 12 2016
FY 2017 NS&E Priorities Research Areas (1)
The long-term objective is systematic understanding, control and restructuring of matter at the nanoscale for societal benefit
A. Scientific challenges- New theories at nanoscale
Ex: transition from quantum to classical physics, collective behavior, for simultaneous phenomena
- Non-equilibrium processes- Designing new molecules with engineered functions- New architectures for assemblies of nanocomponents- The emergent behavior of nanosystems . . . .
MC. Roco, Dec 12 2016
FY 2017 NS&E Priorities Research Areas (2)
B. Investigative and Transformative Methods - Tools for measuring and restructuring
with atomic precision and time resolution of chemical reactions
- Understanding and use of quantum phenomena- Understanding and use of multi-scale selfassembling- Nanobiotechnology – sub-cellular and systems approach- Nanomanufacturing scalable, modular, hybrid, on site - Systems nanotechnology
