Nano Physics

Any condensed matter systems whose at least one (out of three) dimension is of the order of nanometer can be considered as Nano scale system. Nanotechnology is branch of science which deals with designing, fabricating and monitoring materials and components with dimensions on the Nano scale, i.e. from 1 to 100 nm. Nanophysics teach how nanotechnology can be used in order to develop new optic and electronic components and new materials for use in communications technology, sensor technology or catalysis. Nano physics is branch of physics which applied at nanometer range in order to get proper result. In Nano range properties of materials changed. Basically at Nano range the surface properties of materials start dominating compare to bulk properties. In surface there are dangling bond which have high surface energy compared to bulk.
