Nanorobotics
Nanorobotics is the engineering field that designs and operates nanorobots, molecular machines 1 to 1000 nm in size, chiefly for drug delivery, biosensing, and surgery.
Nanoscale 3D printing of metallic glass
Nanoscale 3D printing of metallic glass is the fabrication of amorphous metal-alloy structures from tens of nanometers to hundreds of micrometers, using rapid heating and cooling that shapes the alloy without letting it crystallize.
Nanosheet CMOS
Nanosheet CMOS is a transistor technology in which each MOSFET channel is a stacked, gate-all-around nanosheet, replacing FinFETs at 2-nm-class nodes; Samsung, Intel, and TSMC all adopted it.
Nanoshells
Nanoshells are spherical nanoparticles consisting of a silica core covered by a thin gold shell, whose optical resonance is tuned into the near-infrared, mainly for photothermal cancer therapy.
Nanosphere lithography
Nanosphere lithography (NSL) is an inexpensive, high-throughput nanofabrication method in which self-assembled monolayers of nanoscale polymer or silica spheres serve as masks for patterning periodic nanostructures.
Nanotec Electronic

Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology, also known as nanotech, is the understanding and control of matter at the nanoscale of 1 to 100 nanometers, applied in electronics, medicine, and energy.
Nanotip electron source
A nanotip electron source is a sharp metallic or semiconducting cathode whose nanometer-scale apex emits bright, highly coherent, ultrashort electron pulses used in ultrafast electron microscopy and attosecond science.
Nanotribology
Nanotribology is the branch of tribology, the science of friction, wear, and lubrication, that studies interacting surfaces in relative motion at scales from single atoms to the microscale.
Nanotribometer
A nanotribometer is an instrument for measuring friction and wear in sliding contacts from nanometers to micrometers, filling the gap between AFM measurements and conventional macroscopic tribometers.
Nanotwinned metals
Nanotwinned metals are crystalline metals, most often FCC, containing a high density of nanoscale twins below 100 nm, combining high strength with good ductility; applications include microelectronics and coatings.
Nanowire solar cells
Nanowire solar cells are photovoltaic devices whose light-absorbing semiconductor is shaped as micrometer-long wires or pillars, reducing reflection and material use; III–V designs reached 17.8% efficiency.
