Nanocomputing Summary
1,165 words, approx. 4 pages Nanocomputing Nanocomputing describes computing that uses extremely small, or nanoscale, devices (one nanometer [nm] is one billionth of a meter). In 2001, state-of-the-art electronic devices could be as small as about 100 nm, which is about the same...

Molecular Computing Summary
1,113 words, approx. 4 pages Molecular computing is the science of using individual molecules to build computer programs. Instead of running software on a traditional computer, some scientists are now trying to replace the silicon chip with test tubes, liquids, and even living...

Nanochemistry Summary
788 words, approx. 3 pages In nanochemistry, the rules of bonding are extended from atoms and molecules to larger objects having the dimension of from 1 to 100 nanometers, where one nanometer is one-billionth of a meter. In this regime, new chemical and physical properties...

Nanotechnology Summary
709 words, approx. 2 pages Nanotechnology refers to the construction and use of atomic machines—functioning consortia of atoms that are less than about 1,000 nanometers in size. A nanometer is one billionth of a meter. The technology is relevant to computer science as it...

Nanotechnology Information
4,682 words, approx. 16 pages
 Nanotechnology refers broadly to a field of applied science and technology whose unifying theme is the control of matter on the atomic and molecular scale, normally 1 to 100 nanometers, and the fabrication of devices within that size range. It is a...

Nanotechnology and Nanoengineering.
01/01/2001: 373 words, approx. 1 pages Nanotechnology is defined as the creation of functional materials, devices, and systems through the control of matter at a scale of 1-100 nanometers, as well as the exploitation of novel properties and phenomena developed at that scale. Although the word "nanotechnology" is new, the...
