Nanotech Shadows: Risks, Ethics, And Unseen Realities
Imagine a world where materials are stronger, lighter, and more efficient; where medicine is targeted and precise; and where Electronics are smaller and more powerful. This isn't science fiction, but a glimpse into the reality being shaped by nanotechnology. The ability to manipulate matter at the atomic and molecular level is revolutionizing industries and opening doors to innovations previously considered impossible. Let's delve into the fascinating world of nanotech and explore its potential.
What is Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology, often shortened to "nanotech," is the manipulation of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally, nanotechnology deals with structures of 1 to 100 nanometers in size. A nanometer is one billionth of a meter - incredibly small! At this scale, materials...
