Nanotechnology and its Applications in Science and Engineering

The book titled Nanotechnology and Its Applications in Science and Engineering is structured into four chapters and presents the principles and applications of nanotechnology. This field focuses on the manipulation of matter at the nanoscale, between 1 and 100 nanometers, where materials exhibit unique mechanical, electrical, thermal, and optical properties due to quantum effects. The book explores scientific applications such as targeted drug delivery, nanoparticle-based medical imaging, nanosensors for rapid diagnosis, and research tools including atomic force microscopy and electron microscopy. It also examines technological applications in electronics, including nanoscale transistors, energy-efficient processors, and carbon nanotube memory devices, as well as energy solutions such as high-efficiency solar cells and batteries with nanostructured electrolytes.
