Why is the Nanoscale Relevant? — A Full Explanation The nanoscale refers to dimensions between 1 and 100 nanometers (nm), where 1 nanometer = one-billionth of a meter (0.000000001 m). At this incredibly small scale, materials begin to show unique and often enhanced properties that are not observed at larger, bulk scales. This makes the Read more…
What is Nanotechnology? Nanotechnology is the science and technology of creating, manipulating, and using materials, devices, and systems at the nanoscale, which typically ranges from 1 to 100 nanometers. To understand how small this is, consider that a nanometer is one-billionth of a meter (1 nm = 0.000000001 m). At this scale, materials often exhibit Read more…
