2. A Technical Seminar on Nanotechnology Presented By: Syed Murtuza Hussain (06K31A1036)
3. What is Nanotechnology ? An engineered DNA strand pRNA tiny motor Semiconducting metal junction formed by two carbon nanotubes
4. Nanotechnology is the creation of functional materials, devices and systems, through the understanding and control of matter at dimensions in the nanometer scale length (1-100 nm), where new functionalities and properties of matter are observed and harnessed for a broad range of applications
