Nanotechnology


Hi everyone,
today, I am going to talk about nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is used to control matter in the range of atom and molecule sizes. It also used to manufacture materials of 1 to 100 nanometer sizes.
Nanotechnolgy can be used to device physics or to create materials used for applications, on an atomic scale. It can create materials in applications such as medicine, electronics and biomaterial. I feel that witht the introduction of nanotechnology, the future would see many applications produced by nanotechnology which will bring a new dimension to our life. Scientists have carried out experiments sbased on nanotechlogy. One exaple would be the a atomic sized guitar.
Also there has been a reported experiment which is about nanorobots that will be used in medical science.
For instance, nanotechnology can be used to to make nano-particles which can be released into the bloodstream through drugs. These nano-particles use targeting devices to treat the cells in the human body. I believe this is a more efficient way to get better and faster results, improvement in a patients condition as the drugs carried by the nano-particles are directly transported to the cells. This reduces side-effects. Also it is better than conventional methods where the drugs enters through your mouth or bloodstream by injection.
With the current advancement of nano-technology, I believe the future for technology is good as man looks to upgrade his life in a new pespective.
