I have below a link discribing all the different applications for nanotechnology


http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_nanotechnology_applications&oldid=455543026

But out of all the applications that nanotechnology offers one of my favorite ideas has come from Dr. Mike Zach at UWSP, a former chemistry professor of mine. He is currently working on a knife composed of nano-wires. The neat thing about this knife is that it never dulls its edge. As one uses the knife, the nano-wires "peel" off therefore keeping the knife sharp.

Here are some links pertaining to him.

I hope these intrigue you

Enjoy!!
