Nanomaterials are, at a fundamental level, materials engineered at an incredibly small scale – specifically, with at least one dimension measuring between 1 and 100 nanometers. To put this into perspective, a nanometer is one billionth of a meter; a human hair is approximately 80,000-100,000 nanometers wide. It is at this minute scale that materials can exhibit remarkably different physical and chemical properties compared to their larger, bulk counterparts. This opens up a vast realm of possibilities for new technologies and applications across a multitude of scientific and engineering disciplines.
