Introduction and History
Nanotechnology is an emerging material science technology which provides a higher level of control over matter at dimensions of roughly 1 to 100 nanometers. Nanotechnology's particularly small scale (10-7 to 10-9) improves physical, chemical, and biological properties of materials and systems. For instance, 10 nanometers are about 1000 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair.
For scientist to be able to control material, devices, and systems on a molecular scale opens up infinite possibilities in the nanotechnology field. Every existing science and technology field will become more advance and complex, especially the computer science field. There are endless possibilities of what nanotechnology can do to the name and make up of the computer, much like the concept of microcomputers that change the industry in the 1970's. A nanocomputers is a computer whose dimensions are nanoscopic. Today's computers are considered microcomputers and run......
