Nano Engineering
Nanotechnology is a branch of engineering that analyses, develops, and refines materials on a very small scale. It can be thought of as the application of nanoscience in a practical sense, similar to how mechanical engineering applies the principles of physics. Nanoengineering deals with nanoparticles and their interactions to create useful materials, systems, devices and structures. Nanoengineering is not a new science, but a technique that has applications in many industries, including electronics, energy, medicine and biotechnology. The work of nanoengineering machines can be very diverse, but it often revolves around the development of nanomaterials. Carbon nanotubes, nanocomposites and quantum dots are some examples.
