Abstract
Nanotechnology basically means any kind of technology in a nanoscale, which can be applied in the existent world. It is a comparatively new research field, but it is not a completely new area and the research draws insights from many other research areas. It is generally considered that nanotechnology makes possible the coming of the new Industrial Renaissance since it has the potential for a reflective impact on modern society and economy in the early 21st century, similar to that of information technology (IT), electronics technology, especially in semiconductor technology or molecular and cellular biology. The purpose of this chapter is to look into the present aspects of nanotechnology. In this chapter, the authors discuss a variety of applications of nanotechnology in recent decades like modern engineering, robotics, food technology, medicine, etc., and also they indicate the current and potential uses of nanoscience and nanotechnologies. Social and ethical impacts as well as health and environmental impacts will be highlighted.
