Change Quote by Mildred Dresselhaus

I would say the first three or four papers on nano-thermoelectricity in bismuth went almost unnoticed, but all of a sudden when Dirac cones…

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

“Atoms at such low temperatures lost their individuality and physical properties, going through an identity crisis.”

— Christopher Meeks

Nanotechnology is manufacturing with atoms.

— William Powell

“A future world of computer circuits, getting smaller and smaller, yet faster and faster, is a plausible future "life- form" more technically competent than…

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

We must remember that everything depends on how we use a material, not on the material itself... New materials are not necessarily superior. Each…
