Nanoscience is the study of matter's properties at a nanoscale. It is based on the special size dependent properties of solid state materials [1]. Nanoscience deals with objects of size having the smallest dimension ranging from a few nanometers to less than 100 nanometers. In the field of physics and electrical engineering nanoscience is most often related with quantum behavior, the behavior of electrons and photons in nanoparticles [2]. The word “nanotechnology” was the first time used by Norio Taniguchi and defines nanotechnology as “Nano-technology” mainly consists of the processing of separation, consolidation, and deformation of materials by one atom or one molecule”[1]. Nanotechnology is the technology which works on level of nanometer (nm), one billionth of a meter. In the nano region the elements change properties unpredictably. It is generally related to mechanical engineering on a molecular scale …
