Overview of Nanotechnology: Applications and Challenges
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Electrical/Electronics Engineering
Abstract
Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter on a near-atomic scale to produce new structures, materials and devices. The technology promises scientific advancement in many sectors such as medicine, consumer products, energy, materials and manufacturing. Nanotechnology refers to engineered structures, devices, and systems. Researching, developing, and utilizing these properties is at the heart of new technology. This paper presents the overview of this modern technology, evaluates the potentials and anticipated Risks associated with its application.
