Nanomaterial and Nanotechnology

In  nanomaterial and nanotechnology the term ‘Nano’ is derived from the Greek ‘Nanos ‘which is known as extremely small particle. Basically nanomaterial is material with dimensions on the nano-scale. Structure at Nano-scale has unique optical, electronic, or mechanical properties. Actually, nanomaterial’s cover huge areas of materials of materials, many of which we would not normally consider to be particularly revolutionary. Because nature is full of nanomaterial’s and Nanostructure. Nanotechnology is the engineering of operative systems at the molecular scale. This covers both present work and concepts that are more advanced. In this real world today the nanotechnology has ability to build products using techniques and equipment’s to produce completely high performance products. The idea that seeded nanotechnology were first discussed in 1959 by renowned physicist Richard Feynman in his talk There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom in which it explained about the possibility of synthesis via direct manipulation of atoms
