Nanotechnology enables smaller transistors, memory, and circuitry which allows for faster and cheaper electronics like computers and storage devices. It utilizes nano-scale materials like carbon nanotubes that are invisible but highly conductive, enabling transparent touch screens and displays. Moore's Law describes how the number of transistors on chips doubles every two years, and nanotechnology has allowed this trend to continue, increasing computer processing power while decreasing costs over time. Some limitations remain such as the high costs of nanotechnology production and potential environmental effects.
