Atoms Quote by George M. Whitesides

Nanotechnology is manufacturing with atoms.

— William Powell

Nanotechnology is the idea that we can create devices and machines all the way down to the nanometer scale, which is a billionth of…

— Paul McEuen

One of the issues in electronics is that we work only in two scales - transistors and collections of transistors - and that's the…

— George M. Whitesides

Nanotechnology will let us build computers that are incredibly powerful. We'll have more power in the volume of a sugar cube than exists in…

— Ralph Merkle

In thinking about nanotechnology today, what's most important is understanding where it leads, what nanotechnology will look like after we reach the assembler breakthrough.

— K. Eric Drexler

Likewise nanotechnology will, once it gets under way, depend on the tools we have then and our ability to use them, and not on…

— K. Eric Drexler

Carbon nanotubes are amazing because they're really good electrical conductors, yet they are only a few atoms in diameter. You can make transistors out…

— Paul McEuen

When a nanotech company matures and becomes a real business, it becomes something else. It becomes a biotech company or a cleantech company or…

— Steve Jurvetson

When I understood the rudiments of what nanotech was all about, I knew I wanted to participate.

— Bernard Marcus

Manufacturing takes place in very large facilities. If you want to build a computer chip, you need a giant semiconductor fabrication facility. But nature…

— Ralph Merkle

Nanotechnology will be responsible for the largest evolutionary change in mankind. Life as we know it 'will' become extinct. Humans will be cured.

— Carl Stoynoff

In physics, one of the most exciting areas is in nanotech. With computers exhausting the power of silicon, Silicon Valley could become a Rust…
