Chapter 1: Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnologies This is an introductory chapter to define nanoscience, nanotechnologies and nanomaterials. It illustrates in general terms what is "special" about the nano-world, and why this area of science is exciting and worth bringing into the classroom. Chemistry majors may want to review aspects of quantum mechanics, and the basics of statistical mechanics and fluc-tuations. The use of a partition function to justify what is normally done on the basis of mass action will be new to most chemistry students. The properties of electrons in periodic solids (Chapter 7) are not part of the regular July 20, 2022, 10:48 a.m. ET. Robert F. Curl Jr., who shared the 1996 Nobel Prize in Chemistry as one of the discoverers of remarkably simple but completely unexpected carbon molecules known as Keywords: Nanotechnology; Health care application; Nanotoxicity; Challenges Introduction Nanotechnology and science of nanomaterials provide apt potential in engineering of materials and at present is the enormously growing and developing scientific technology. It is defined as the study of controlling, manipulating and creating systems based nanotechnology, very small objects come to the mind. Indeed, this branch of science and technology deals with materials having at least one spatial dimension in the size range of 1 to 100 nm. Richard P. Feynman (Nobel Laureate in Physics, 1965) is often credited for introducing the concept of nanotechnology about 50 years ago.

The prefix "nano" is a Greek word which means "dwarf". The word "nano" means very small or miniature size. Nanotechnology is the treatment of individual atoms, molecules, or compounds into structures to produce materials and devices with special properties. We can define nanotechnologyas: materials and systems whose structures and " components exhibit novel and significantly improved physical, chemical and biological properties, phenomena and processes due to their nanoscale size". An effective public awareness program is necessary to clarify misunderstandings about nanotechnology. Figure 2. 1.6 Nanotechnology and the Converging Technologies 2.
