Nano tape, the Glossary

Index Nano tape

Nano tape, also called gecko tape; marketed under the name Insanity Tape, is a synthetic adhesive tape consisting of arrays of carbon nanotubes transferred onto a backing material of flexible polymer tape.[1]

Adhesion

Adhesion is the tendency of dissimilar particles or surfaces to cling to one another.

See Nano tape and Adhesion

Adhesive

Adhesive, also known as glue, cement, mucilage, or paste, is any non-metallic substance applied to one or both surfaces of two separate items that binds them together and resists their separation.

See Nano tape and Adhesive

Adhesive tape

Adhesive tape is one of many varieties of backing materials coated with an adhesive.

Andre Geim

Sir Andre Konstantin Geim (Андре́й Константи́нович Гейм; born 21 October 1958; IPA1 pronunciation: ɑːndreɪ gaɪm) is a Russian-born Dutch–British physicist working in England in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester.

Biomimetics

Biomimetics or biomimicry is the emulation of the models, systems, and elements of nature for the purpose of solving complex human problems. Nano tape and Biomimetics are Biophysics.

Carbon nanotube

A scanning tunneling microscopy image of a single-walled carbon nanotube Rotating single-walled zigzag carbon nanotube A carbon nanotube (CNT) is a tube made of carbon with a diameter in the nanometre range (nanoscale). Nano tape and carbon nanotube are carbon nanotubes.

See Nano tape and Carbon nanotube

Double-sided tape

Double-sided tape is any pressure-sensitive tape that is coated with adhesive on both sides. Nano tape and Double-sided tape are adhesive tape.

See Nano tape and Double-sided tape

Dry etching

Dry etching refers to the removal of material, typically a masked pattern of semiconductor material, by exposing the material to a bombardment of ions (usually a plasma of reactive gases such as fluorocarbons, oxygen, chlorine, boron trichloride; sometimes with addition of nitrogen, argon, helium and other gases) that dislodge portions of the material from the exposed surface.

Gecko

Geckos are small, mostly carnivorous lizards that have a wide distribution, found on every continent except Antarctica.

See Nano tape and Gecko

Gecko feet

The feet of geckos have a number of specializations. Nano tape and gecko feet are Biophysics.

Konstantin Novoselov

Sir Konstantin Sergeevich Novoselov (p; born 1974) is a Russian–British physicist.

Manchester Centre for Mesoscience and Nanotechnology

The Manchester Centre for Mesoscience and Nanotechnology is a centre for interdisciplinary research in mesoscience and nanotechnology headed by Andre Geim at the University of Manchester.

Micrometre

The micrometre (Commonwealth English) as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: μm) or micrometer (American English), also commonly known by the non-SI term micron, is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equalling (SI standard prefix "micro-".

Nanostructure

A nanostructure is a structure of intermediate size between microscopic and molecular structures.

See Nano tape and Nanostructure

Seta

In biology, setae (seta; from the Latin word for "bristle") are any of a number of different bristle- or hair-like structures on living organisms.

See Nano tape and Seta

Shear force

In solid mechanics, shearing forces are unaligned forces acting on one part of a body in a specific direction, and another part of the body in the opposite direction.

See Nano tape and Shear force

Spider-Man

Spider-Man is a superhero in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

See Nano tape and Spider-Man

Synthetic setae

Synthetic setae emulate the setae found on the toes of a gecko and scientific research in this area is driven towards the development of dry adhesives. Nano tape and Synthetic setae are Biophysics and nanotechnology.

See Nano tape and Synthetic setae

Van der Waals force

In molecular physics and chemistry, the van der Waals force (sometimes van de Waals' force) is a distance-dependent interaction between atoms or molecules.

See Nano tape and Van der Waals force

Wafer (electronics)

In electronics, a wafer (also called a slice or substrate) is a thin slice of semiconductor, such as a crystalline silicon (c-Si, silicium), used for the fabrication of integrated circuits and, in photovoltaics, to manufacture solar cells.
