1 Introduction to Nanotechnology

2 What is Nanotechnology
the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometer in at least one dimension, and involves developing or modifying materials or devices within that size.

3 Nanotechnology is already making today’s products: Lighter Stronger
Faster Smaller More Durable

4 How small is Nano - small?
Units in nanometers (µm)

5 A Human Hair is about 100,000µm wide
Compared to Human Hair A Human Hair is about 100,000µm wide

6 A “Nano-Scale” Demonstration
