science nanotechnology

Nanotechnology science, or nanoscience, is defined as a technology based on the manipulation of individual atoms and molecules to build structures to complex, atomic specifications. Nanotechnology science is concerned either with reducing the size of materials to nanometer size, or more generally, with individual atoms and molecules or groups of them.

Nanotechnology science, which is based on biology and physics, provides for the manipulation of individual atoms and molecules to produce materials with precise, predictable properties.

Nanotechnology science and nanotechnology encompass a range of techniques rather than a single discipline, and stretch across the whole spectrum of science, touching medicine, physics, engineering and chemistry.

Nanotechnology science includes applications microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), quantum computing, nanomedicine, nanoelectronics, carbon nanotubes, self assembly, nanoscale materials, ultra-sensitive biosensors, smart materials, molecular motors, shape memory materials, DNA template chemistry, advanced microfabrication, and molecular biology.
