An Introduction to Nanotechnology - What It Is and Why It Matters

Nanotechnology involves engineering and designing materials at the nanoscale - just billionths of a meter in size! In this video, we'll explore what nanotechnology is, how it works, and the novel properties it enables. We'll look at how nanomaterials are being developed for applications in electronics, medicine, energy and more. But we'll also discuss some of the health and environmental risks associated with nanotechnology, and the importance of responsible innovation. By the end, you'll have a solid understanding of this emerging field, and why nanotechnology has the potential to transform nearly every industry in the coming decades.
