NANOTECHNOLOGIES FOR THE FUTURE

Abstract

The needs of the world are growing while the sources are decreasing. The existing systems have not been able to cope up this developing situation. It is likely that with the fast increasing population will worsen this situation. All types of sciences, commerce and arts have not been able to provide the solutions to this situation so far. Nanotechnology is the new field which provides us some hope to meet the growing challenges. New wonder nano- materials like carbon nano-tubes, fullerenes, bucky-balls, dendrimers, quantum dots, nano-crystals, titanium dioxide nano-particles, silver nano-particles, silver nano-wire and other such nano-sized particles have brought a change in the materials at a surface level but need now is changing the redundant systems into new workable nanotechnology systems which could provide worthwhile solutions to the ever growing problems. This concept paper aims at delineating the role of Nanotechnology in the new world. Keywords: Buildings, energy, health, nanotechnologies, space
