- OVERVIEW:
-
In today's world, "Packaging Engineering" is a discipline of designing IC and MEMS platforms and electronic circuits at the mircoscale. The integrated circuit is so well established and common that many of us have given it little thought -- until now, with the advent of Nanotechnology. My vision is to bring an attitude of engagement between the Engineer and Nanotechnology. Therefore, I shall define Nanotechnology, answering the question, "Is it real?" After exposing its benchmark, I compare the technology readiness level and introduce achievements to date. Then, more importantly, we will examine why only the Engineer can grow the Nanotechnology Frontier into an Industry.
