Concept explainers
The range of feature sizes of entities associated with nanotechnology.
Explanation of Solution
Nanotechnology deals with objects not much bigger than atoms and molecules. Nanoscale refers to dimensions within nano-size range and slightly below, which overlaps on the lower end with the sizes of atoms and molecules. Nanoscience involves the behavior of individual molecules and the principles that explain this behavior and nanotechnology involves the application of these principles to create useful products.
Nanotechnology refers to the manufacturing and application of entities whose feature sizes range from less than
