    Its the field of applied science whose

    theme is the control of matter on an

    atomic and moleculer scale. Nanotechnology is the manipulation of

    matter at the nanometer scale to create

    novel structures, devices and systems.

    Introduction to Nanotechnology

    How Small is a nm?

    One nanometer (nm) is one billionth of ameter.

    One human hair (cross section) is about100,000 nonometers.

    Larger then nanoscale is the microscale &smaller than that is the atomic scale.

    The next Big Thing is very,very,verysmall!

    Nanotechnology is an enabling technology that will

    change the nature of almost every human made

    object in the next century.

    This means anything manufactured will be

    impacted by nanotechnology and it is happeningmore quickly than most people might think..!!

    Is nanotechnology bad or good?

    Nanotechnology offers great potential forbenefit to humankind, and also brings severe

    dangers. While it is appropriate to examinecarefully the risks and possible toxicity ofnanoparticles and other products ofnanoscale technology, the greatest hazards

    are posed by malicious or unwise use ofmolecular manufacturing.

    Dual-Use Technology

    As a general-purpose technology, it eill be dual-use, means it will have many commercial uses andit also will have many military usesmaking farmore powerful weapons and tools of surveillance.Thus it represents not only wonderful benefits forhumanity, but also grave risks.

    What could Nanofactory make?

    Lifesaving medical robots and untraceable weapons ofmass destruction.

    Networked computers for everyone in the world andnetworked cameras so governments can watch ourevery move.

    Trillions of dollars of abundance and vicious scrambleto own everything.

    Rapid invention of wondrous products and weaponsdevelopment fast enough to destabilize any arms race.

    Disadvantages

    Global monetary crisis, oil becomes worthless& diamonds becomes worthless.

    Atomic weapons more destructive andaccessible increases causes of death.

    It is so minute that its existence in the hand ismuch unnoticed.

    Possibilities to overcome.

    The medical advantages are change of bodyappearance, stop aging process, imortality, painlesschildbirth and universal immunity like AIDS,flu andend of sickness.

    The social advantage include reproducing extinctanimals & plants, safe & space travel, highereducation, molecular food synthesis, to mention afew.

    The industrial advantages are automatic pollutioncleanup, expanding computer technology by makingit faster and smaller in size increasing employement.

    Future Scope.

    Future computers will use atoms instead of chips formemory.

    It can take Artificial Intelligence to new heights. Itcan compeletely dh world around us by creatingsmart devices that may also rival human brains.

    A nano robotics cruising the bloodstream of acancer patient pinpointing the nucleus of the tumour& applying rediations therapy directly to the cancersource & nowhere else in the body.

    This technology is capable of curing cancer on thebasis of an out-patient office visit and nanotech isclose to realizing that in the near future.

    Conclusion

    Nanotechnology is predicated to be

    developed by 2020 but much depends on our

    commitment to its research.

    While some advances are made through

    unpredicated accidents or a flash of insight,

    others require more work.

    A lot depends on when we start.
