Janus nanoparticles (JNPs) are a kind of nanomaterial that has two or more distinct physical or chemical properties on different parts of the same particle. They are named after the Roman god Janus, who possessed two faces. JNPs have unique advantages in medication delivery, catalysis, self-assembly, diagnostics, and other areas since their structure and composition are not always the same. This study looks at the most recent developments in the creation, characterization, and use of Janus nanoparticles. We also discuss about the issues and possibilities that lay ahead for research and growth, as well as how they can accomplish so many various things.
