• • • Nanotechnology (' nanotech') is manipulation of matter on an,, and scale. The earliest, widespread description of nanotechnology referred to the particular technological goal of precisely manipulating atoms and molecules for fabrication of macroscale products, also now referred to as. A more generalized description of nanotechnology was subsequently established by the, which defines nanotechnology as the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100. This definition reflects the fact that effects are important at this scale, and so the definition shifted from a particular technological goal to a research category inclusive of all types of research and technologies that deal with the special properties of matter which occur below the given size threshold.
It is therefore common to see the plural form 'nanotechnologies' as well as 'nanoscale technologies' to refer to the broad range of research and applications whose common trait is size. Because of the variety of potential applications (including industrial and military), governments have invested billions of dollars in nanotechnology research. Through 2012, the USA has invested $3.7 billion using its, the European Union has invested $1.2 billion, and Japan has invested $750 million. Nanotechnology as defined by size is naturally very broad, including fields of science as diverse as,,,,,,, etc.
The associated research and applications are equally diverse, ranging from extensions of conventional to completely new approaches based upon, from developing with dimensions on the nanoscale to. Vector Banner Psd on this page. Scientists currently debate the future.
Nanotechnology may be able to create many new materials and devices with a vast range of, such as in,, energy production, and consumer products. On the other hand, nanotechnology raises many of the same issues as any new technology, including concerns about the and environmental impact of nanomaterials, and their potential effects on global economics, as well as speculation about various. These concerns have led to a debate among advocacy groups and governments on whether special is warranted. Comparison of Nanomaterials Sizes Inspired by Feynman's concepts, used the term 'nanotechnology' in his 1986 book, which proposed the idea of a nanoscale 'assembler' which would be able to build a copy of itself and of other items of arbitrary complexity with atomic control.
