Nanonet

A nanonet is a net with fibers on the scale of nanometers. The net can be composed of carbon,^[1] metals,^[2] silicon,^[3] or peptides, such as nanonets composed of the defensin HD6.^[4] The word nanonet is also used in reference to a nanoscale communication network,^[5] which also uses key components on the scale of a hundred nanometers as officially defined in IEEE P1906.1.
