CARBON NANO TUBES-THE GOOD OF SMALL THINGS

CARBON NANO TUBES-THE GOOD OF SMALL THINGS

ABSTRACT:

Stone age,bronze age,iron age,silicon age and what next?Neverthless to say we are well into the nanotech age,where materials are getting smarter day by day.Nanotechnology is a result of intersection of diverse fields such as physics,biology,engg,chemistry and computer science to name a few.The term “NANOTECHNOLOGY”was first coined byK.Eric Drexler in 1986. In fact, with the ability to build things atom-by-atom and molecule-by-molecule called Nanostructuring is expected to bring about innovative devices based on molecular/cluster manufacturing-“ Nano machines, Nano tubes,Nano robots” are some of them.

IMAGINE a medical device that travels through the human body to seek out and destroy small clusters of cancerous cells before they can spread. Today's supercomputer could become tomorrow's wrist watch . Buildings and machines could signal when they need maintenance, and perhaps repair themselves. Our clothing could monitor our health and alert us to environmental hazards. These are few revolutionary applications of nanotechnology--the looming technological breakthrough that could transform every aspect of our society.
