inexpensive. Design computers that each execute more instructions per second than
all of the semiconductor CPUs in the world combined.
Research programs are chemistry, molecular biology, and scanning probe
microscopy is laying the foundations for a technology of molecular machine systems.
Focused efforts today are centered in Japan, sponsored by STA and MITI, the US has
a strong position in the basic technologies. It’s time we paid more attention.
Discoverer of Buck balls, chairman of Chemistry and head of the
Nanotechnology Initiative at Rice University, DR.Richard Smalley.
“Nanotechnology will reverse the harm done by the industrial revolution”.
Introduction to the feature article “Nanotechnology” in “On the cutting edge of
technology”, Sams publications, 1993, by Gayle Pergamit and Chris Peterson of the
Foresight Institute, Palo Alto.
Imagine being able to cure cancel by drinking a medicine stirred into your
favorite fruit juice. Imagine a supercomputer no bigger than a human cell. Imagine a
four – person, surface – to – orbit spacecraft no larger or more expensive than the
family car. These a just a few products expected from Nanotechnology.
4.11 Answer the questions
1. What would allow automatic construction of consumer goods without traditional
labor?
2. What is Nanotechnology?
3. How have digital technologies made copying?
4. Where will molecular manufacturing bring a digital revolution to?
5. What are laying the foundations for a technology of molecular machine system?
6. Where are focused efforts centered in?
