What are the Challenges in Microengineering for Nanotechnology?
While microengineering has enabled significant advancements in nanotechnology, it also faces several challenges:
Precision and Accuracy: Achieving nanometer-scale precision can be difficult and requires advanced tools. Cost: The equipment and processes used can be expensive, limiting accessibility. Material Limitations: Not all materials are suitable for micro and nanofabrication. Scalability: Transitioning from laboratory-scale to industrial-scale production is often challenging.
