Overview

"Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary study that focuses on manipulating matter at the atomic, molecular, and supramolecular scale. It is often referred to as the science of the small. At this scale, materials display distinct properties and behaviors that are different from those observed at larger scales, providing possibilities for innovation and applications in several areas. Nanotechnology possesses the capacity to fundamentally transform various domains like medical, electronics, energy, and materials science. This has far-reaching consequences for a wide range of applications, spanning from healthcare and environmental restoration to computing and manufacturing. The term ""nano"" is a unit of measurement equal to one billionth of a meter, or 10^-9 meters, emphasizing the extremely minute scale at which nanotechnology functions. At this level of measurement, phenomena controlled by quantum mechanics become more and more common, resulting in new characteristics like quantum confinement, surface effects, and increased responsiveness. Scientists in the field of nanotechnology utilize these qualities to create and manipulate materials, structures, and devices with specific functions and performance characteristics. Nanotechnology involves a diverse array of methods and strategies, such as bottom-up synthesis, top-down production, self-assembly, and manipulation at the atomic and molecular scale."
