Manipulating Molecules: The National Nanotechnology Initiative
Description:
The Administration has requested $498 million for nanotechnology research, a $228 million increase over FY2000. Nanotechnology is a newly emerging field of science where scientists and engineers are beginning to manipulate matters at the molecular and atomic level in order to obtain materials and systems with significantly improved properties. Ten nanometers is equal to one-thousandths the diameter of human hair.
