INITIATIVE IN NANO INNOVATION (MINI). This group will coordinate the
nanoresearch and assist in translating the activities and results
of this research into economic growth.

Adronov groupconcerned with the synthesis and study of novel
nanoscale structures that may eventually have applications
in diverse areas such as molecular electronics, sensory devices,
and molecular encapsulation and transport.

(d – f) SEM images of Au-catalyzed GaAs nanowires grown
at constant V/III flux ratio of 1.5 and temperature of: (a,d)
500 °C, (b,e) 550 °C, and (c,f) 600 °C. The length

NANOTECHNOLOGY IS CALLING, MICROSCOPES ARE ANSWERING
AS THE NANO-SCALE WORLD GROWS, RESEARCHERS
AT ALBERTA AND MCMASTER UNIVERSITIES DEVELOP THE
MICROSCOPE TECHNOLOGY TO CONQUER IT.
