Since its emergence a few decades ago, nanotechnology has been shown to be a perfect example of a crossroad between different fundamentals sciences. In the last 10 years, the continuous progress of classical top-down lithography and the use of alternative bottom-up elaboration methods has allowed new and smaller components to be created. Their combination has led to very complex and innovative architectures. At the same time, flexible, low-cost, and low-ecological-footprint devices have emerged. Thus, the diversity and multidisciplinary features present challenges in addressing these issues in educational programs.
