Nanotech Weaves New Realities In Personalized Medicine
Nanotechnology, the manipulation of matter on an atomic and molecular scale, sounds like something ripped straight from science fiction. However, it's a very real, rapidly advancing field with the potential to revolutionize industries from medicine and manufacturing to energy and electronics. This blog post will delve into the fascinating world of nanotech, exploring its core principles, diverse applications, and future prospects.
What is Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology, at its core, deals with materials and devices whose structures exhibit at least one dimension ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers (nm). To put that into perspective, a nanometer is one billionth of a meter – about 100,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair! This scale allows scientists and engineers to manipulate m...
