Nanotechnology vs. Nanoscience

Nanotechnologynoun

The science and technology of creating nanoparticles and of manufacturing machines which have sizes within the range of nanometres (1–100 nm).

Nanotechnologynoun

The manipulation or construction of objects with sizes in the nanometer range or smaller.

Nanotechnologynoun

the branch of engineering that deals with things smaller than 100 nanometers (especially with the manipulation of individual molecules)

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology, also shortened to nanotech, is the use of matter on an atomic, molecular, and supramolecular scale for industrial purposes. The earliest, widespread description of nanotechnology referred to the particular technological goal of precisely manipulating atoms and molecules for fabrication of macroscale products, also now referred to as molecular nanotechnology.

Nanosciencenoun

The underlying science of nanotechnology.
