This books aims to explain nanotechnology to an audience that does not necessarily have a scientific background. It will cover all aspects including the new areas of biomedical applications and the use of nanotechnology to probe the ‘quantum vacuum.’ After discussing the present state of the art in nanotechnology, the book will try to make estimates of where these technologies are goingand what will be possible in the future. The book includes chapters on naturally occurring nanoparticles and the tools of nanotechnology (the manufacture of MEMS devics and scanning probe technologies).
