18^th Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine Congress

Nanostructures refer to materials or structures that have at least one dimension between 1 and 100 nm. The various sub-fields of nanotechnology focus on the creation, characterisation and application of nanostructures. Nanostructures are fabricated by methods as simple as solution processing, and as complicated as advanced lithography. In addition to extensive efforts in the fabrication of nanostructures, current research and development of nanostructures also focus on the investigation of fundamental material properties, including mechanical, electrical, and optical properties at the nanoscale, and the development of novel applications in a broad range of engineering fields.
