7. Summary
Nanomachines are largely in the research and development phase, but some
primitive molecular machines and nanomotors have been tested have been tested
Nano robots are the result of combination of two technologies: robotics and
nanotechnology. It is a tiny machine which is designed to perform specific task
or tasks repeatedly and with precision at nanoscale dimensions.
Nano robots can function at the atomic or molecular level to build devices,
machines or circuits , a process known as molecular manufacturing. Moreover
they can produce copies of themselves to replace worn out units, a process
called self replication.

Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon nanotubes are allotropes of carbon with a
cylindrical nanostructure.
Properties
Highest strength to weight ratio: Helps in creating light weight spacecrafts.
The CNT is sandwiched between two layers of metal at each end to improve
electrical contact. With this architecture, the metallic contacts serve as heat
sinks, and shell removal as a result of thermal stress occurs in the suspended
segment.
the thermal contact resistance and removal of Joule heat generated in the CNTs
through these metallic contacts is dependent on the contact area, we find that
heat dissipation is higher at the two-layer heat sink than the single-layer heat
sink.

NEMS
The next step along the road to fabricating nanorobots is to fabricate simpler
NEMS. NEMS make it possible to manipulate Nano sized objects with Nano
sized tools, measure mass in femtogram ranges, sense force at piconewton
scales, and induce gigahertz motion.
