Nanotechnology, Ideal Opportunities for Development

A nanometer is a unit of spatial measurement that is 10−9 meter, or one billionth of a meter. It is spatial for commonly used in nanotechnology; a scale in which atoms and molecules interact or combine with each other. Nanotechnology and nanoscience include the capacity to control materials even in a nano scale for using physical, chemical and biological properties in nano materials, instrument and to use new systems. As this technology is new and globally spatial, Iran nowadays starts to explore this technology. The main purpose of this article is firstly to introduce and identify nanotechnology and nanotechnology advantages, secondly to study nanotechnology statues in the world. Hereby, for comparing the statues of nanotechnology in Iran with other expert countries in this technology we intend common indicators, showing a new perspective of nanotechnology in Iran and other countries. By general overview on knowledge - based economy planning in Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) was hold in European Community (EC) - we are trying to show a proper sample or a new paradigm usage in high level of technology. And finally by expressing its opportunities and threats as well as its weak and rise points to approach nanotechnology problems in order to achieve quick development in this technology, we can interest in it in future.
