The importance of nanotechnology comes from the tunability of material properties by assembling such materials at the nano- scale level. Norio Taniguchi’s 1974 paper is the first scientific publication in which the term “nanotechnology” was used [2].

Naturalnanomaterials Naturalnanomaterialsbelongtothenaturalnanoworldandoriginate from animals or minerals without any human modification or processing. Some important examples of natural nanomaterials include inorganic natural nanomaterials (minerals, clays, etc.), natural carbon nanoparticles (diamond and graphite), nanoparticles from space, nanomaterials from the animal and plant kingdoms (cotton, collagen, bacterial fibers, exoskeleton, and endoskeleton), and nanomaterials ininsects(chitin,sponge fibers) [3]. 2. Artificialnanomaterials These are fabricated by experimental and well-defined mechanical and fabrication processes. Examples include carbon nanotubes, graphene, metal oxides, quantumdots, etc. According to their number of dimensions, which are not confined to the nanoscale range (<100nm),nanomaterialsareclassifiedasfollows: n Zero-dimensional For this kind of material all the dimensions measured are within the nanosize range. The most common demonstration of zero- dimensional nanomaterials is nanoparticles. They are amorphous or crystalline, single crystalline or polycrystalline; composed of single ormultiplechemicalelements;existindividuallyorincorporatedina matrix; exhibit various shapes and forms; and can be metallic, ceramic,orpolymeric. n One-dimensional For these materials one dimension is outside the nanoscale, which leads to needle-like-shaped nanomaterials. One-dimensional materials include nanotubes, nanorods,and nanowires.
