Nanotechnology ("nanotech") is manipulation of matter on an atomic, molecular, and supramolecular 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 molecular nanotechnology. A more generalized description of nanotechnology was subsequently established by the National Nanotechnology Initiative, which defines nanotechnology as the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 nanometers. This definition reflects the fact that quantum mechanical effects are important at this quantum-realm 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.
For many decades, nanotechnology has been developed with cooperation from researchers in several fields of studies including physics, chemistry, biology, material science, engineering, and computer science. Nanotechnology is engineering at the molecular (groups of atoms) level. It is the collective term for a range of technologies, techniques and processes that involve the manipulation of matter at the smallest scale (from 1 to 100 nm2).The nanotechnology provides better future for human life in various fields. In future nanotechnology provides economy, ecofriendly and efficient technology which removes all difficult predicaments which is faced by us in today life scenario. Nanotechnology is the technology of preference to make things small, light and cheap, nanotechnology based manufacturing is a method conceived for processing and rearranging of atoms to fabricate custom products.
The nanotechnology applications have three different categories nanosystems, nanomaterials and nanoelectronics. The impact of the nanotechnology occurred on computing and data storage, materials and manufacturing, health and medicine, energy and environment, transportation, national security and space exploration. There are many applications of nanotechnology which are exciting in our life such as nanopowder, nanotubes, membrane filter, quantum computers etc.
But there are several problems which are occurred with the exploration of the nanotechnology such as the wastes released while making the materials for nanotechnology are released into the atmosphere and can even penetrate human and animal cells and effect their performance, agricultural countries will lose their income as nanotechnology will take over, if any damage is done at the molecular level then it is not possible to revert it.

Nanotechnology ppt from Top Nanotechnology Companies NANOSUSTENTABLE global directory. The basics of nanotechnology. What is nanotechnology and what is its role in aviation and aerospace industry?
The slide deck review the occupational health and safety hazards and risks associated with the scientific construct of nanotechnology. It provides a basic understanding of how nanotechnology is very important aspect in pulmonary disease and toxicity other potential medical disorders and the need for hierarchy of controls, medical surveillance, and epidemiology to reduce risk of exposure during manufacture and breakdown of products containing nano particles. The life cycle analysis provides perspectives into the types of workers who maybe exposed.
Nanotechnology essentially restructures molecules to make materials lighter, stronger, more penetrating or absorbant, among many innovative qualities. In cancer research, it offers a unique opportunity to study and interact with normal and cancer cells in real time, at the molecular and cellular scales, and during the various stages of the cancer process. For cancer researchers, a special interest lies in ligand-targeted therapeutic nanoparticles (TNP), which are expected to selectively deliver drugs and especially cytotoxic agents specifically to tumor cells and enhance intracellular drug accumulation. Targeting can be achieved by various mechanisms. For example, nanoparticles with numerous targeting ligands can provide multi-valent binding to the surface of tumor cells with high receptor density (as opposed to low receptor density on normal cells) or nanoparticle agents can enhance permeability and retention (EPR) effect to exit blood vessels in the tumor, to target surface receptors on tumor cells, and to enter tumor cells by endocytosis before releasing their drug payloads.
In this presentation we shall look at nanotechnology in drug development with a focus on anticancers and the advantages of nanoparticles as therapeutic platform technology. Approved nanotech based drugs and their clinical trials will be discussed. Two specific clinical trial case studies will be focused on along at some length with a mention of some ongoing clinical trials of nanotherapeutics. We shall also take a look at the future direction of nanotechnology based therapeutics.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

4. • Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter on
an atomic and molecular scale. The earliest, widespread description
of nanotechnology referred to the particular technological goal of
precisely manipulating atoms and molecules for fabrication of macro
scale products.
• The associated research and applications are diverse, ranging from
extensions of conventional device physics to completely new
approaches based upon molecular self-assembly, from developing
new materials with dimensions on the nanoscale to direct control of
matter on the atomic scale.
• Because of the variety of potential applications (including industrial
and military), governments have invested billions of dollars in
nanotechnology research.
6. • The concepts that seeded nanotechnology were first discussed in 1959 by
renowned physicist Richard Feynman in his talk There's Plenty of Room at the
Bottom, in which he described the possibility of synthesis via direct
manipulation of atoms. The term "nano-technology" was first used by Norio
Taniguchi in 1974, though it was not widely known.
• In the early 2000s, the field garnered increased scientific, political, and
commercial attention that led to both controversy and progress.
Controversies emerged regarding the definitions and potential implications
of nanotechnologies, exemplified by the Royal Society's report on
nanotechnology. Challenges were raised regarding the feasibility of
applications envisioned by advocates of molecular nanotechnology.
7. • Meanwhile, commercialization of products based on advancements in
nanoscale technologies began emerging. These products are limited to bulk
applications of nanomaterials and do not involve atomic control of matter.
• Governments moved to promote and fund research into
nanotechnology, beginning in the U.S. with the National Nanotechnology
Initiative, which formalized a size-based definition of nanotechnology and
established funding for research on the nanoscale.
• By the mid-2000s new and serious scientific attention began to flourish.
Projects emerged to produce nanotechnology roadmaps which center on
atomically precise manipulation of matter and discuss existing and
projected capabilities, goals, and applications.
9. • Small Particles - More surface area, more atoms to contact a surface.
• Extremely Precise – Materials can be made close to perfection to the point
that exact number of atoms can be measured.
• The development of more effective energy-producing, energyabsorbing, and energy storage products in smaller and more efficient
devices is possible with this technology.
• Radically improved formulation of drugs, diagnostics and organ
replacement.
• Atomically engineered food and crops resulting in greater agricultural
productivity with fewer labor requirements.
12. MATERIAL SCIENCE

13. ENERGY
• Fuel cell technology becomes cost effective within 3 years.
• Batteries that store more energy and are much more efficient.
• Plastics and paints that will store solar power and convert to energy for
$1 per watt.
14. MEDICINE/BIOTECH
Cosmetics that can penetrate the skin.
Cures for AIDS, Cancers, Alzheimer's, Diabetes.
Ability to view cells In vivo - Fast Drug Creation.
Nanomaterials that can see inside vessels for plaque buildup.

15. ELECTRONICS
• Silicon is hitting its size limit, Moore’s Law suspected to be obsolete
soon.
• Super Chips – Combination of Silicon and Gallium Arsenide create
wireless chips.
• Plastic semiconductors manufactured by regular printing devices –
cheaply produced.
• Electronic Paper.
16. KEY TERMS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW
Important terms in the field of Nanotechnology.
18. CARBON NANOTUBES
• 4 nm width (smaller diameter than
DNA).
• 100x’s stronger than steel 1/6 weight.
• Thermal/electrically conductive.

20. MEMS AND QUANTUM DOTS
• A quantum dot is a nano crystal made of
semiconductor materials that are small
enough to display quantum mechanical
properties.
• MEMS is as a new manufacturing
technology, a way of making complex
electromechanical systems using batch
fabrication techniques similar to those used
for integrated circuits, and uniting these
electromechanical elements together with
electronics.
22. •
•
•
•
•
•
Mass Production.
Throughput and cost constrains.
Funding requires long-term investment.
Theft of intellectual property.
Potential danger if technology falls in wrong hands.
Health issues - the effects of nanomaterials on human biology.
• Environmental issues - the effects of nanomaterials on the
environment.
• Societal issues - the effects that the availability of nanotechnological
devices will have on politics and human interaction.
• Speculative issues - the specific risks associated with the speculative
vision of molecular nanotechnology, such as "Grey goo“.
24. • With US government funding of nanotechnology receding slightly in
2011, Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) estimates indicate that for the first
time, China will spend more than the US to fund nanotechnology.
• In the last 11 years, governments around the world have invested more than
US$67.5 billion in nanotechnology funding. When corporate research and
various other forms of private funding are taken into account, nearly a
quarter of a trillion dollars will have been invested in nanotechnology by
2015.
• Corporate research and private funding were thought to have surpassed
government funding figures as far back as 2004. But this year, according to
Cientifica’s estimates, in PPP terms China will spend US$2.25 billion in
nanotechnology research while the US will spend US$2.18 billion. In real dollar
terms, adjusted for currency exchange rates, China is only spending about
US$1.3 billion to the US’s $2.18 billion.
25. • This appears to be a temporary hiccup in US dominance in public funding of
nanotechnology with the US again taking the lead next year even in PPP
terms, spending $2.46 billion with China allotting $2.2 billion.
• Cientifica’s index of countries’ ability to take advantage of emerging
technologies indicates the US, Germany, Taiwan and Japan have the
combination of academic excellence, technology-hungry
companies, skilled workforces and the availability of early stage capital to
ensure effective technology transfer.
• When combined with levels of nanotechnology funding, the US is still the
place to be, although China and Russia are increasingly attractive. The UK
and India struggle at the bottom of the league.
29. We are placing bets on things we can
do uniquely well.
First, new ways to power the world.
Second, molecular medicine.
And third, Nanotechnology.

Editor's Notes
This is a presentation on Nanotechnology, presented to you for a Personality Development Project.
It is bought to you by Dipanshu Gupta and Ramkumar, aka Walter and Jesse respectively.
Now, what is even Nanotechnology? Lets start with a brief overview.
Nanotechnology is the art and science of manipulating and rearranging individual atoms and molecules to create useful materials, devices and systems.It’s unique because it’s Star Trek stuff! We can build entirely new materials and machines we have only imagined in the past! But, Nanotechnology is fast redefining those boundaries. It literally makes you think ‘Out of the Box’!It’s applications are so diverse that there is some serious money going in it for R&D.
Lets take a look at the origins of this science.
Richard Feynman, the famous physicist, first envisaged this idea. He thought of synthesis by manipulating atoms.Since the dawn of this century, this field has garnered significant interest in the scientific community and elsewhere. It wasn’t spontaneously accepted and many debates took place about it.
Commercial progress did begin, but only at nano-scale, which is 10^-9. The atomic-scale manipulation was yet to come.The use government started a program called the NNI (National Nanotechnology Initiative), which, as the stats show, has received serious funding over the years.Scientists have drawn Timelines and hope to reach the atomic manipulation of matter in the near future.
One question that you might be wondering at the back of year head is, “Why Nanotechnology?” Why is it so special that people talk so excitedly over it? Lets flip and see.
Rephrase and explain the above mentioned ideas.
Lets now go to the main part of this presentation, the various applications of Nanotechnology. See The Enterprise back over there? Even that is possible. Now that I have already had your curiosity, I hope I will now have you attention.
Read out the table. Dazzle people.
Clothing can act as a computer. TV’s that use Carbon Nanotubes – vibrant pictures at any angle, much thinner and use less energy.Flooring tiles that can never be scratched, and can change color and pattern on demand.Nanolubricants that can withstand and work at very high temperatures.Building tiles coated with Titanium Dioxide Nano Particles that never need repainting or washing.Car windows that can’t be broken and dented materials that fix themselves.Anything you can dream, watch it come alive.
Fuel cells – very high efficiency.Batteries will begin to use Carbon Nanotubes instead of graphite, increasing storage and battery life. Now you might run every day to your charger for juice but in 10-15 years, it will be a whole new ball game.
The medicine department is taking huge strides forward in this technology. It can be seen from the obvious emergence of big Pharmaceutical companies that invest billions of dollars in research. The above mentioned points are the things that could be a reality very soon. Talk about re-growing organs, thanks to nanotechnology!
Moore’s Law, stated by Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of Intel. According to it, the number of transistors in a chip would double every year. This has come up to 18 months now, and the law is fast becoming obsolete. The microprocessor timeline for Intel experience a Tick and a Tock every cycle. Every Tick represents the shrinking of a previous architecture, as with the new Haswell Processors by Intel and every Tock is a new Microarchitecture, as with the Broadwell processors expected in early 2015.With electronic paper comes bright, vivid images and it looks like regular paper. It’s light and flexible. And unlike the screens today, the screen is perfectly visible under direct sunlight!
There are a few special terms in Nanotechnology that I would love to acquaint you with. Lets have a look at them.
Read all out. Say a line or two. We shall look at BuckyBalls, Carbon Nanotubes and MEMS& Quantum Dots briefly.
Read out.
Talk a bit of chemistry nigga.
MOSFET, which expands to Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) takes 1000 electrons to turn on or off. Quantum Dot based SETs can do with a single electron. 1000 times faster and much more efficient computing!A 64 bit Q bit computer is roughly 18 billion times more powerful as a 64 binary. What would take a Pentium class digital computer pulling 2 billion calculations a second to solve a 64 bit encryption key 292 years, a 64 Q bit computer just one operation!You have no idea the kind of computers we can have within a decade!
Nanotechnology, being the amazing science it is, has faced obstacles throughout its run. You might expect people to fancy it but when real life comes, there are a number of problems this science faces. Lets have a look at this section.
Paraphrase. Duh!
Research at such a scale needs huge sums of money and government support, in abundance. What is the spending figure and scheme? It’s all here.
Talk a bit. Tough to explain.
Same here. Do mention the last point slowly and let that sink in.
Here is the NNI Budget, for 2012-2014. Though it’s receding slightly, it definitely is receding.
This project wasn’t a brainchild of mine. This took some serious research and extensive reading. Here’s a compilation of a few websites which helped us throughout the project.
Read out the sites.
Read the quote. Duh! Read it slowly. Make it look like a conclusion.
