Can someone provide information about nanotechnology? What is its scope?

"Nanotechnology refers to the branch of technology that deals with the manipulation of matter on an atomic, molecular and supramolecular scale.” Job roles for Nanotechnology: 1. Nanotechnologist 2. Scientist 3. Researcher 4. Professor 5. Engineer 6. Medical Scientist 7. Food Scientist Scope : One can find job as nanotechnologists; specialists or scientists. The areas where a nanotechnologist can seek employment include biotechnology, agriculture, food, genetics, space research, medicine and so on. Job opportunities are also available in National Physical Laboratory, Indian Institute of Astrophysics etc. Candidates with Ph.D can also join as faculty members in Universities and colleges or research fields. India is still in the development stage for Nanotechnology and it will take quite a few years for this field to become established in India. Research labs and institutions such as IISc, TIFR, NCBS, IITs etc. Are performing excellent research in India. However, when compared with countries such as UK, Germany and USA, output of high quality research pales significantly. This is due to several reasons such as lack of integration between different departments for R&D in Nanotechnology. On the other hand, students interested in working in the Nanotechnology industry have limited options.
