Sound Waves Precisely Position Nanowires

The smaller components become, the more difficult it is to create patterns in an economical and reproducible way, according to an interdisciplinary team of Penn State researchers who, using sound waves, can place nanowires in repeatable patterns for potential use in a variety of sensors, optoelectronics and nanoscale circuits.

IBM creates worlds smallest movie with a handful of precisely placed atoms

2013-05-01 13:14:43| Extremetech

IBM's bleeding-edge nanophysicists have created the world's smallest movie (embedded below), by moving single carbon atoms around a copper surface. The film, called A Boy and His Atom, is 60 seconds long and made of 242 individual stop-motion frames, with each frame being roughly 50 atoms wide. So you have some idea of this truly minute scale, a human hair is about 1,000,000 atoms wide. If IBM so wished, it could convert A Boy And His Atom into a feature film, and still fit the frames within the width of a human hair.
