This company is the heart of Nanotechnology and everything that it stands for. This company is presenting ideas that were not thought to be possible a few years ago, and is creating jobs that did not exist before.
ALD NanoSolutions makes individual atoms adhere to themselves and other atoms, at our will. This obviously opens the possibility of using properties only available at the nanoscale. Normally, this process takes a long time, but ALD has perfected the procedure, and is now able to do it almost instantly, by utilizing gas deposited and reactions. They are able to make aluminum oxide, a nanoparticle that is capable of blocking UV radiation (so it is used for sunscreens), of being used as a catalyst, cosmetics, paint, as an abrasive, and as a way to remove water from a gas stream. They make the particle by layering an aluminum compound onto an oxygen containing compound, and do so sereveral times to make an atomically thin sheet.
