National Nanotechnology Initiative: The Initiative
and its Implementation Plan
National Nanotechnology Initiative - Leading to the Next
Industrial Revolution "My budget supports a major new
National Nanotechnology Initiative, worth $500 million.
… the ability to manipulate matter at the atomic and
molecular level. Imagine the possibilities: materials
with ten times the strength of steel and only a small
fraction of the weight -- shrinking all the information
housed at the Library of Congress into a device the size
of a sugar cube -- detecting cancerous tumors when they
are only a few cells in size. Some of our research goals
may take 20 or more years to achieve, but that is
precisely why there is an important role for the federal
government." --President William J. Clinton January 21,
2000

Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI)
National Science Foundation
"The National Science Foundation promotes and advances
scientific progress in the United States by competitively
awarding grants and cooperative agreements for research and
education in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering."
NIST Laboratory Programs
Focusing on Nanotechnology
"NIST will provide the new measurements, standards, and data
needed to turn fundamental nanotechnology discoveries into new
technologies, products and services broadly affecting our
economy and our lives."

DARPA (main),
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is the
central research and development organization for the Department
of Defense (DoD).
DARPA (upc)
"Alnis is pursuing an innovative approach to the synthesis of
nano-structures and macromolecular networks that can recognize
and bind pathogen related compounds or antigens."
AFRL
"...The mission of AFRL is to lead the discovery, development,
and integration of affordable warfighting technologies for our
aerospace forces. Our mission is executed by our nine technology
directorates located throughout the United States, the Air Force
Office of Scientific Research, and our central staff..."
