[Legacy Report] Nanotechnology in a changing world: Potential for wealth creation

August 26, 2010 · 9:30 AM - 11:15 AM @ Moratuwa

Description

An innovative low carbon technology solution to bring the provision of inexpensive large area solution processable photovoltaics to the world was presented. The sun bathes the world with enough solar energy in one hour to power the world for an year. If suitable capture and storage of solar energy was available, there would not be a crisis in the energy provision, energy security or global warming. Also provided a suitable framework for a demonstrator project which can look after a group of people by providing 24/7 bio-potential monitoring technology. Also, novel routes to cure illnesses and diagnostic therapies for diseases using nanotechnology will be highlighted.
