	Buckyballs - A new and unprecedented form of elemental carbon that was first discovered in 1985. This was termed Buckminsterfullerene or buckyball after the architect who created the geodesic dome.	13	13	Fri May 15, 2009 2:02 pm nanoorg
	Carbon Nanotubes Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes (different structural modifications) of carbon with a nanostructure that can have a length-to-diameter ratio of up to 28,000,000:1, which is significantly larger than any other material. These cylindrical carbon molecules have novel properties that make them potentially useful in many applications.	11	11	Fri May 15, 2009 1:49 pm nanoorg
	MEMS - Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) is the integration of mechanical elements, sensors, actuators, and electronics on a common silicon substrate through microfabrication technology.	12	12	Mon Jun 08, 2009 1:51 pm nanoorg
	Nanoacoustics – Deals with the enhancement of speakers, support structures for improved acoustical properties and enhanced environmental protection using nanotechnology.	5	5	Fri Feb 27, 2009 12:19 pm nanoorg
	Nanobiomed – Deals with the application of nano-scaled tools to biological systems and the use of biological systems as templates in the development of novel nano-scaled products.	337	340	Mon Jun 08, 2009 1:46 pm nanoorg
	Nanoecology - Where chemicals such as pesticides were once used in the environment, nanoecology may present a more environmentally friendly alternative. Nanoecology is the molecular engineering of products and nanomachines to create a cleaner environment.	80	80	Mon Jun 29, 2009 9:43 am nanoorg
	Nanoelectronics - Nanoelectronics encompasses nanotechnology in manipulating individual molecules in electronics applications.	115	115	Wed May 06, 2009 9:42 am nanoorg
	Nanoenergy – Deals with the application of Nanotechnology in solving our future needs for energy technologies, especially in new generations solar photovoltaics, the hydrogen economy, more efficient conventional energy production and energy saving for industry as well as consumers.	81	82	Fri May 15, 2009 2:29 pm nanoorg
	Nanomachine - A nanomachine, also called a nanite, is a mechanical or electromechanical device whose dimensions are measured in nanometers (millionths of a millimeter, or units of 10-9 meter).	27	28	Mon Jun 29, 2009 9:41 am nanoorg
	Nanomaterial - A nanomaterial, is a material or substance whose dimensions are measured in nanometers (millionths of a millimeter, or units of 10-9 meter).	221	223	Fri May 15, 2009 2:23 pm nanoorg
	Nanooptics - Nanooptics deals in optical spectroscopy which has a spatial resolution of <100 nm. This opens up fascinating insights into the physical processes occuring on a nanometer scale.	36	36	Fri May 15, 2009 2:08 pm nanoorg
	Nanosensors - The use of nanotechnology to produce devices that are used for sensing and detection. These sensors have dimensions measured in nanometers.	47	47	Tue Jun 09, 2009 9:59 am nanoorg
	Nanospace - The use of nanotechnology in terms of the applications and developments concerning space exploration.	9	9	Fri Jun 19, 2009 10:06 am nanoorg
	Nano Computing The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes from gears to relays to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on. Soon the parts will become smaller and smaller until they are made up of only a handful of atoms. At this point the laws of classical physics break down and the rules of quantum mechanics take over, so the new quantum technology must replace and/or supplement what we presently have. It will support an entirely new kind of computation with new algorithms based on quantum principles.	40	40	Wed May 06, 2009 12:11 pm nanoorg
