Nanoscience is the study of structures and materials at the nanometer scale, typically less than 100 nanometers. It focuses on understanding and manipulating matter at the atomic, molecular, and macromolecular levels to explore unique properties that emerge at this tiny scale. Key areas of nanoscience include nanomaterials, nanotechnology, and nanosystems. This field has significant implications for various industries, including medicine, electronics, energy, and materials science. Applications range from drug delivery systems and medical diagnostics to the development of more efficient batteries and advanced materials with enhanced properties. Nanoscience drives innovation by enabling new technologies and solutions that harness the distinct behaviors of matter at the nanoscale.
