About Books

NanoTechnology
NanoTech is the art and science of manipulating matter at the NanoScale. NanoTech is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally, NanoTech deals with developing materials, devices, or other structures with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 NanoMeters. The word Nano means "Dwarf" One NanoMeter (nm) is one out of Billionth of a meter (10- 9m)
Nanotechnology we are concerned with natural and synthetic materials in the size range of 1–100 nm. At such a small size, very familiar classical, Newtonian mechanics or thermodynamics are not able to explain the observed properties of materials. We have to use quantum mechanics sometimes directly and sometimes through subjects like solid state physics or chemistry which use it to explain the properties and phenomenon of different materials. Quantum mechanics and how it got developed so that it can be used to understand atoms, molecules, solids and nanomaterials. gives some historical milestones, which have led to quantum mechanics.
