From the above-mentioned, it may be concluded that nanotechnology is currently in a more or less infantile stage. Nevertheless, the expectations of nanotechnology in the near future are high and the demand for advanced technology is increasing. The benefits of such advanced products and applications in many technological areas will be significant and the fields it will be applied to will lead to a new era. The impact of this technology in everyday life is considered to be great, since it will make communications, transportations, data storage, health treatment and many other technological applications faster, safer and cheaper. Some of these developments may be not materialized in the near future, but the imagination of scientists has always led technology in new paths. As the famous Greek philosopher Aristotelis recognized two millennia ago, “Knowledge of the fact is different from knowledge of the reason for the fact”.
