The costs of nanotechnology equipment can vary widely based on complexity, brand, and capability. For instance, a high-end SEM can cost between $100,000 to $1,000,000. AFMs usually cost between $50,000 to $500,000, depending on their features. Lithography tools can range from $200,000 to several million dollars, particularly for advanced e-beam lithography systems. Basic nanoparticle synthesis kits might be cheaper, ranging from $5,000 to $50,000, but advanced synthesis setups can easily exceed $100,000.
