Nanotechnology Applications: an Analytic Comparison

It is very important to consider the fast development of nanotechnology when it comes to real life applications. Creating something tiny with special properties designed to fasten up duration time to accomplish any goal with high accuracy is what nanotechnology all about. During time, there were lot of studies on nanotechnology in general and its applications in many fields. The main purpose of this paper survey is to identify the scientific definitions of nanotechnology, historical background, benefits, approaches, and more specifically studying a Nano particle named Nano Carbon Tube (CNT). CNT is highly used in nanotechnology applications as Central Processing Unit (CPU) cooling system, data storage devices (memory), and sensors. This study will also cover usage of nanotechnology in wireless signals named 5G and toxicity of Nano materials, which is too important to ensure humans and environment safety. Studies showed various results on the impact of CNTs on general health. Some studies showed signs of lung disease and others showed no toxicity. Future research and more detailed experiments should be made to make a closure in the case of CNT materials toxicity.
