Nanometer – 1 billionth of
meter (1/109) – 10-9 meter
Nanoscience
Study of phenomena and
manipulation of materials at
nanometer scale

, NANOTECHNOLOGY
Design, characterization, production
and application of structures, devices
and system by controlling shape and
size at nanometer scale
1 to 100 nm
Word “nano” comes from nanos,
Greek word meaning dwarf
Micro electronics industry – bipolar
transistor in 1947 and invention of 4
IC in 1958
