Nanotechnology often sounds like a distant future, but in fact it is already being developed and researched in Lithuanian laboratories. Nanoparticles are so small that their dimensions only reach billionths of a meter, but their effect can be very large. By changing the structure of a material at nanometer scales, completely new properties can be obtained. The surface begins to repel water, the material becomes extremely sensitive to gases, and …
