Nanoscience and technology is a field that focuses on 1) the development of synthetic methods and surface analytical tools for building structures and materials, typically on the sub-100 nanometer scale, 2) the identification of the chemical and physical consequences of miniaturization, and 3) the use of such properties in the development of novel and functional materials and devices. Thus, this field is of greatest interest to handle nanoparticles, nanostructured materials, nanoporous materials, nanopigments, nanotubes, nanoimprinting, quantum dots, and so on and has already led to many innovative applications, particularly in materials science [18, 19]. For basic investigations, an important role is played by manipulation or imaging nanoscale techniques (e.g., AFM and STM).
