… and this is my PowerPoint resume!

Hi!

My name is Richard

Sundberg

This is me!

I come from a small town in Sweden called Huskvarna. It lies just east of Jönköping.

In 2005 I started my university studies at the Faculty

of Engineering at Lund University in Sweden.

My major was

nanophysics.

I obtained my Master of Science degree in Engineering Nanoscience in December 2010.

A Master of Science in Engineering Nanoscience has, just as any other Master of Science in Engineering, spent much time studying mathematics, physics and electronics.

Engineers in Nanoscience

also spent their fair share

of time on reading

biology, chemistry and

material science.

The connection to nanoscience was there in every course and this theme ran through the entirety of the education.

Here are the place I have work at previously.

But before we go on I would like to ask you a question!

What do you think about when you hear the word nano?

My experience is that few people have a good concept of what nano really is. So, please bear with me now as I, very briefly, will try to give you a small insight into this field.

In just a few moments you will hopefully know a

little something about …

on what scale nano-technology is conducted.

where nano is at today

and where it might be

found tomorrow.a basic concept in nano-science.

All right then! Let us now talk about nano!

I have sometimes been told that nano is the Latin word for dwarf.

This may not be very

informative, but it does

hint at that nano concerns

not the biggest of objects.

Nano is more specifically a prefix to SI units. Just as one kilometer is the same as 1000 meters, one nanometer is the same as one billionth of a meter.

Ok! So now we know

that a nanometer is a

very short distance.

But is this in any way

relatable to things in

our daily lives?

One atom is roughly one tenth of a nanometer in diameter, so one nanometer is therefore roughly the same length as ten atoms.

A strain of hair is roughly

100 micrometers in

diameter, which is the same

as 100 000 nanometers.

And from this we can deduce that a strain of hair is about one million atoms in diameter!

A brand new PC with a processor from Intel contains transistor based on the so called 22 nm technology.

This means that the

smallest fabricated

structures in the

transistors are only

220 atoms thick.

To be able to continuing the process of making ever smaller transistors the industry will eventually have to look to nanotechnology and utilize completely new fabrication processes.

Nanoscience can also be used to create more

efficient solar cells.

And nanoscience can make medicines with better potency and less side effects.

And so much more!

A commonly occurring concept in nanoscience which is worth remembering is self-assembly.

This concept is about

creating the right

conditions for fabrication

and then allow the

structures to basically

grow themselves.

We can compare this to how a tree can grow up to be either straight and tall, or short and crooked, depending on the conditions where it grew up.

Self-assembly works

the same way, but at a

much smaller scale.

Nano is about what happens in the small world and how knowledge of this can affect things in the big world – the world of our everyday life!

Let us now shift the attention back onto me, what

knowledge I possess and subsequently what I can

offer you. So without any further delay.

What I have to offer!

I have always been some of a jack of all

trades and I know something about many

things. I do of course still excel in some

areas.

Extensive technological knowledge

Expertise in the area of nanotechnology

Creativity and ability to solve problems

Experience of research and process

development

I possess …

I am social and enjoy meeting new people. I usually have no problems communicating with others and I can do so in more than one language.

I speak fluent.

I am currently studying,

and I have previously studied.

While we are on the subject of language this is a good opportunity to mention that I also am familiar with programming and I have worked with quite few programming languages.

- Java - Autoscript

- LaTeX - HTML

- Matlab - ASP

- LabView - CSS

I am familiar with CAD and Photoshop software.

Handling chemicals has been a daily part of my work life.

I have extensive experience of laboratory work.

I am an excellent scanning electron microscopy user.

I know how to use atomic force microscopes and how to do nanoimprint lithography.

I have, by far, spent most of my time in Lund Nano

Lab with the combined scanning electron microscope

and focused ion beam system, usually called just FIB-

SEM. I quickly became the most experience user of

said instruct in the lab.

I have worked extensively with this instrument and used about every feature it possess. I can, for example, make TEM lamellas and circuit failure analysis.

Thank you for taking the time to read this far!

I hope it has been some interesting reading.
