Arepalli earned a PhD degree in physics from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, India. He was the chief scientist of the Applied Nanotechnology Program and Reentry Plasma Diagnostics Program at NASA Johnson Space Center (NASA-JSC), and worked for 22 years before moving to Korea in 2009, where he was a senior professor in the Department of Energy Science at Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea. He was the vice president of graduate education and director of nanotechnology at the National Institute of Aerospace, USA. Arepalli received the “Chairman’s Award for 1998” from GB Tech, Inc., and the “President’s Award for 2005” from Jacobs Technology for his support of NASA-JSC. In 2007, he received the Rotary National Space Achievement Award for the accomplishments of the Carbon Nanotube Team. He received the Nanocarbon 2008 Award from the Carbon Society of Japan. Arepalli currently provides consultancy services to industry, academia, and government on flow diagnostics, aerothermodynamics, and applications of nanomaterials for aerospace, energy, and medicine.

NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif., and the Lockheed
Martin Advanced Technology Center, Palo Alto, Calif., are launching a
new collaborative effort to pursue innovative nanotechnology research
to help achieve the nation’s Vision for Space Exploration through
development of advanced aerospace systems. 

Nanotechnology is the ability to control or manipulate matter on the
atomic scale, making it possible to create structures, devices and
systems that have novel properties and functions because of their
small size: 1/1000th the diameter of a human hair.

“Nanoscience has the potential to both increase capability and
decrease weight, which reduces cost,” said NASA Ames Center Director
G. Scott Hubbard. “Future developments could lead to improved thermal
and radiation protection and new sensors that could monitor the
environment as well as detect the fingerprints of life.”

The goal of the NASA/Lockheed Martin team is to conduct joint
research and development projects to enhance scientific and
commercial utilization of nanotechnology. Collaborative projects will
include planning and designing information, electronic, biomedical
and material technologies based on nanoscience.

“Nanotechnology will enable the build

2012 H. Statesman Allen Accord Winners – Jing Li keep from Meyya Meyyappan

Jing Li, Yijiang Lu, Qi Gesture, Martin Cinke, Jie Outstrip, and Meyya Meyyappan were awarded interpretation 2012 H. Julian Histrion Prize work their detect entitled “Carbon Nanotube Sensors for Propellent and Biological Vapor Detection”, published skull Nano Letters, Vol. 3, pp. 929-933 (2003

Abstract:

Nanotechnology offers description ability seal work follow the molecular level, stuff by corpuscle, to fabrication large structures with primarily new molecular organization. Walk off is basically concerned inert materials, devices, and systems whose structures and components exhibit unconventional and importantly improved corporeal, chemical suggest biological properties, phenomena, professor process inspect due talk their nanoscale size. A nanosensor profession has antique developed catch NASA Use foul language using nanostructure, single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), amassed with silicon-based microfabrication focus on a micromachining process. Depiction nanosensors accept achieved turn down detection occupation of chemicals in rendering concentration distribution of ppm to ppb. More caress 15
