Nanoengineering is the act of designing structures at the nanoscale level. It is an interdisciplinary science that assembles biochemical structures at the nanoscale, littler than a bacterium. Nanoengineering is that the observe practice of engineering on the nanoscale. It derives its name from the nanometer, a unit of activity equaling one billionth of a meter. Nanoengineering is basically a equivalent word for nanotechnology, but emphasizes the engineering rather than the pure science aspects of the field.
