ELECTRONICS AND IT
Smaller Transistors
Nanotechnology was able to produce smaller, faster,
and better transistors - the basic switches that enable
modern computing and can eventually store memory in
a single tiny chip. Its typical size was 130 – 250
nanometers until in 2016 Lawrence Berkeley National
Lab demonstrated a one nanometer transistor.
SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT
Sustainable manufacturing
Advanced alloys, high-strength steels, and
composites can be recycled after being crushed —
either by mixing it with other components to
strengthen it or end up with auto manufacturers to
be ‘remanufactured’ as automobile frames.
Battery
Nanotechnology has the potential to significantly
enhance the performance of batteries by improving
their energy density, power output, and cycle life.
