Nanotechnology

Nanoscience and technology has become an interdisciplinary field of science, in particular physics and materials science, which provides an extensive knowledge on the manipulation of matter on an atomic, molecular, and supramolecular scale.  The interdisciplinary nature of this field is driving progress in the materials, instrumentation, electronics, healthcare, defense, sensors, manufacturing, energy, and environment areas.  In fact, it is not a new field to exist; nevertheless, it explored the possibility of formulating devices with enhanced properties.
