Nanotechnology is the creation of functional materials, devices, and systems through control of matter on the nanometer (1 to 100+ nm) length scale and the exploitation of novel properties and phenomena developed at that scale.
A scientific and technical revolution has begun that is based upon the ability to systematically organize and manipulate matter on the nanometer length scale.
Examples of nanotechnology applications:
• giant magnetoresistance in nanocrystalline materials
• nanolayers with selective optical barriers, hard coatings
• dispersions with optoelectronic properties, high reactivity
• chemical and bio-detectors
• advanced drug delivery systems
• chemical-mechanical polishing with nanoparticle slurries
• new generation of lasers
• nanostructured catalysts
• systems on a chip
• carbon nanotube products
• nanoparticle reinforced materials
• thermal barrier
• ink jet systems
• information recording layers
• molecular sieves
• high hardness cutting tools
