Rather, it refers to the process of dealing with materials and matter on a nano or molecular scale and, as such, cuts across an array of industries and scientific disciplines.

FORBES: Blue Chips Stack Up On Nanotechnology

The nebulous field of nanotechnology, freighted with as much hype as legitimate promise, boils down to the process of manipulating matter on a molecular scale (a nanometer is one-billionth of a meter, about the width of ten hydrogen atoms).
