Abstract

Nanotechnology, which is approximately 1 to 100 nanometers, is science, engineering, and technology. The ability to see and control individual atoms and molecules is part of nanoscience and nanotechnology. The age of nanotechnology was born when scientists had the right tools such as the microscope scan tunnelling (STM) and Atomic Force (AFM).
Modern nanoscience and nanotechnology, although quite new, have been used for centuries in nanoscale materials. Scientists and engineers today find a broadrange in deliberate nanoscale materials to use their improved properties, including greater strength, light weight, improved light spectrum control and increased chemical reactivity than their
large counterparts. This paper gives a highlight of nanoscience and its applications.
