Introduction Nanotechnology :- It is the

controlled manipulation of matter on a atomic, molecular and supramolecular scale.

05/01/2023 4

Nanotechnology deals with the development and use of materials or devices ranging between 1 to100 nanometer. This range is known as nanoscale.

All the materials that fall under this scale are nanoparticals or nanocrystals.
