Abstract

Nanotechnology refers to the study of the properties and interactions of substances (including the manipulation of atoms and molecules) on the nanometer scale (between 1 and 100 nm), as well as the multidisciplinary science and technology that utilizes these properties, covering multiple fields such as physics, chemistry, materials, science, engineering, biology and medicine.
