Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology is highly interdisciplinary in physics ,chemistry, biology, materials
science, and the full range of the engineering disciplines. The word nanotechnology is widely used as shorthand to refer to both the
science and the technology of this emerging field. Narrowly defined,
nanoscience concerns a basic understanding of physical, chemical, and
biological properties on atomic and near-atomic scales. Nanotechnology,
narrowly defined, employs controlled manipulation of these properties to create
materials and functional systems with unique capabilities.
Nanotechnology can enable
sensors to detect very small amounts of chemical vapors. Various types of detecting
elements, such as carbon nanotubes, zinc oxide nanowires or palladium
nanoparticles can be used in nanotechnology-based sensors.
