NANOSCIENCE IS CHANGING THE WORLD
NANOTECHNOLOGY is the study, design, creation, synthesis, manipulation and application of materials, devices and functional systems through the control of matter on a nano scale, and the exploitation of phenomena and properties of matter on a nano scale.
There is a great consensus that nanotechnology will lead us to a second industrial revolution in the 21st century as announced a few years ago by Charles Vest (former president of MIT).
When matter is manipulated on the tiny scale of atoms and molecules, it demonstrates entirely new phenomena and properties. Scientists therefore use nanotechnology to create novel, inexpensive materials, devices, and systems with unique properties.
It will mean numerous breakthroughs for many industries and new materials with extraordinary properties (developing materials stronger than steel but only ten percent by weight), new computer applications with incredibly faster components, or molecular sensors capable of detecting and destroying cancer cells in cells. more delicate parts of the human body such as the brain, among many other applications.
