TECHNOLOGY
Nanotechnology is the design,
characterization, production, and
application of structures, devices, and
systems by controlled manipulation of size
shape at the nanometer scale that
produces structures, devices, and systems
with at least one novel/superior
characteristics or prpoperty.
4. DEFINITION OF NANO

province of science fiction,
nanotecnology,the
science of assembling
materials one atom at a
time , is now the rage
among silicon valley
investors.”
