What is Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology originates from the Greek word meaning “dwarf”.
A nanometre is one billionth (10 -9) of a metre, which is tiny, only the length of ten hydrogen atoms, or about one hundred thousandth of the width of a hair!
Although scientists have manipulated matter at the nanoscale for centuries, calling it physics or chemistry, it was not until a new generation of microscopes were invented in the nineteen eighties in IBM, Switzerland that the world of atoms and molecules could be visualized and managed.
In simple terms, nanotechnology can be defined as ‘engineering at a very small scale’, and this term can be applied to many areas of research and development – from medicine to manufacturing to computing, and even to textiles and cosmetics. It can be difficult to imagine exactly how this greater understanding of the world of atoms and molecules has and will affect the everyday objects we see around us, but some of the areas where nanotechnologies are set to make a difference are described below.

Nanotechnology in Mobile Phone
Nokia is working on the technology with the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre, hoping to take the next big step in mobile form and functionality. That will hopefully include the option to wear your phone on your wrist or carry as a traditional handset (thanks to the newly-developed flexible material), a self-cleaning and self-preserving phone, transparent electronics,built-in solar absorption for charging and integrated sensors for more information about the environment around us.
A long way off production I would guess, but the future does at least look interesting.
It is a concept of mobile highlights the latest features that nanotechnology can offer: flexible materials, electronic components and transparent surfaces self. Obviously, no working prototype of this terminal has been unveiled, the concept of having one simple goal to demonstrate the technical feasibility of materials that could be used in mobile term in a few years.
Tapani Ryhanen, the director of the laboratory NRC Cambridge in the United Kingdom precise about Morph that "we hope that this combination of art and science will get the potential of nanoscience with a the broadest possible audience. The techniques that we develop could lead one day for new opportunities in terms of design and operation of mobile devices. "
It should be noted that this is not the first mobile concept developed for the whole or part by Nokia, the Finnish already working on "Remade", a mobile entirely on recycled or "Eco Sensor", a mobile green.
