Imprints of Nanoscopic World in Times
摘要
In a remarkable 1959 speech, physicist Richard Feynman predicted the rise of nanoscience in the modern world. The transcript talks about “plenty of room at the bottom,” which came true in the 1980s as researchers created methods and instruments to examine and work with matter at the atomic nanoscale, less than 100 nm. Advances in nanoscience and nanotechnology have simplified modern life in almost every scientific and technical arena. According to estimates, this technology will play an important part in addressing the world’s energy demands with clean fuels that emit the minimal pollutants. Nanoscience has the potential to create miniaturized electronics for non-invasive health monitoring, which can improve human health and lifespan. This chapter begins with the significant phenomenon of ribosome assemblers, a ubiquitous presence in living things.
