Nano materials can be defined as those materials which have structured components with size less than 100nm at least in one dimension.
Nanotechnology is an advanced technology, which deals with the synthesis of nano-particles, processing of the nano materials and their applications.
INTRODUCTION

Begin with atoms and molecules(bottom), which react under chemical and physical circumstances to form nanostructure.
Eg. Chemical Vapor Deposition(CVD), Atomic Layer Deposition(ALD), Crystal Growth ,etc
Bottom-up Methods

Begin with Bulk Materials(Top) that are subsequently reduced into Nanostructures(Down) by the way of physical, chemical and mechanical processes.
Eg: Mechanical-ball milling , extrusion, grinding,etc
Top-Down Method

Ball milling is a method of production of nano materials.
This process is used in producing metallic and ceramic nano materials.
These mills are equipped with grinding media composed of wolfram carbide or steel.
Ball mills rotate around a horizontal axis ,partially filled with the material to be ground plus the grinding medium.

The balls rotate with high energy inside a container and then fall on the solid with gravity force and kinetic and hence crush the solid into nano crystallites.

The significant advantage of this method is that it can be readily implemented commercially.
Ball milling can be used to make carbon nanotubes and boron nitride nanotubes.
It is a preferred method for preparing metal oxide nano crystals like Cerium(CeO2) and Zinc Oxide (ZnO).

Ball milling of graphite under a hydrogen atmosphere is an effective method of producing nanostructured graphite which is able to store an appreciable amount of hydrogen.
Nanostructured graphite has potential for use as a low-cost in energy store, for vehicles and stationary hydrogen-energy applications.
