Nanotechnology is playing a vital role in the field of medicine, especially in dispensing medicine and hygiene in most of the developing nations. You can expect miracles in the field of pharmacy and medicine with the growth of nanotechnology. For instance, to disinfect contaminated water, people in Bangladesh may (in the future) expose water to […]
Nanotechnology in computers has very-wide potential. For one thing, it promises smaller, lighter machines that are protected against data loss due to power failures, according to research on molecular-sized ferroelectric particles performed at Argonne Laboratories. These particles would have a width of just 1/500th of a human hair and they have a totally different behavior […]
Nanotechnology has a very-wide range of possible applications now, and they seem to be limited primarily by what researcher’s can envision. As time passes, and more tools for working at atomic and molecular levels are developed, nanotechnology applications will be applied to an increasing number of practical products which people worldwide want and need. Therefore, […]
Nanotechnology in electronics was originally suggested for applications in the 1970s, but the tools necessary to implement the technology were not yet available. Today, some tools are available and more are under development. The challenge before scientists and engineers is to connect molecules only a half a nanometer wide and a few nanometers long. The […]
Molecular nanotechnology is the process of engineering mechanical systems that will function at the molecular level between 1 and 100 nanometers. Such systems are obviously very small, since one nanometer is merely one billionth of an inch. To work at such levels, new, ultra-powerful atomic and scanning microscopes had to be developed. These have opened […]
