The Next Very Big (Small) Thing
)

3. WHAT NANO Means
• “The word itself is a combination
of nano, from the Greek “nanos”
(or Latin “nanus”),
• Nano refers to the 10-9 power, or
one billionth. In these terms it
refers to a meter, or a nanometer,
which is on the scale of atomic
diameters

4. What Is
Nanotechnology

5. Who Cares
About
Nanotechnology

6. Who Cares About Nanotechnology ?
We All Should Care!
– Because it can bring revolution in the current
industrialization and manufacturing processes.

7. DR.RICHARD FEYNMANN
• At first the term Nano
technology was coined by
the physist Richard
Feynman in 1965.
• "The whole idea behind
this is I want people to
understand a little bit
more about
nanotechnology," Orfescu
said. "I'm trying to make a
parallel with the macro
world --- the one we see
with the naked eye."

8. NEED FOR NANO TECHNOLOGY?
• Allows the placement of small structures placed with
precision ,simplicity and low cost
• Leads to economic growth
• Enhances national security
• Improves the quality of life
• Leads to create jobs

9. APPLICATIONS OF
NANO TECHNOLOGY

10. Carbon Nanotubes:: This
rotating picture is actually a model of
carbon nanotube, the strongest and
stiffest materials discovered till to
date.

11. Medical Nanotechnology or Nano medicine

– Precise

17. Advantages
Industrial
– Computers can become a billion times faster and a million
times smaller
– Automatic Pollution Cleanup
– Manufacturing at almost no cost

18. Advantages
Medical
– End of Illnesses (i.e. cancer, heart disease)
– Universal Immunity (i.e. aids, flu)
– Body Sculpting
(i.e. change your appearance)

19. Disadvantages

20. Disadvantages
– Loss of jobs (in manufacturing, farming, etc.)
– Carbon Nanotubes could cause infection of lungs
– It has very high initial investment costs along with high
manufacturing costs
– Atomic weapons could be more accessible and destructive

21. Future of Nanotechnology

22. Future Of Nanotechnology
National Science and Technology Council
(USA) claims that:
“Nanotechnology is an enabling technology
that will change the nature of almost every
human-made object in the next century.”

23. CONCLUSION
• Nanotechnology helps to understand the
world around us, and will provide inspiration
and drive for many generations of scientists.
• Thus the future generation is going to
continue the fantastic voyage with Nano
technology in advanced level making life
easier.
