Nanotechnology is technology so small that it is based on actually manipulating particles at the atomic level. Manipulating atomic structures can be so extremely versatile that leading researchers are now working on new compounds designed to forestall aging, correct genetic defects, fight diseases, miniaturize all manner of semiconductors, clean up toxic waste, build roads, design new types of fabrics, fuel cells and even build automobiles from these basic building blocks. Potential applications can be expected in virtually every industry with a wide range of discovery being worked on by the Semiconductor Industry, the Electronics Industry, the Genomics Industry.
