Slashdot Mirror
Nanotech Motors, Biotransistors, DNA Fractals
FleaPlus writes "The American Institute of Physics has a news bulletin describing a couple of interesting nanotech advances. The first is the smallest electric motor in the world, made by Alex Zettl's group at UC Berkeley. The second is a single-protein wet biotransistor. Additionally, Technology Research News reports on algorithmic self-assembly of DNA Sierpinski triangles, by Erik Winfree's group at Caltech."
Are sooo March 2005. Wake me up when they develop a single protein dry biotransistor.
Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
BOOOOORING let me know when they develop a fully functing nano sized Flux Capacitor so i can put it in my watch and make it run Linux so that when ever i miss something good i can just rewind it.
The first is the smallest electric motor in the world, made by Alex Zettl's group at UC Berkeley. Eventually, this will go into the world's smallest electric planer, which will be used, in part, to create the world's smallest violin. Tragically, this wonder of design will be crushed between the fingers of Steve Buscemi.
Okay, I'm not a scientist, but why would you want a *smaller* vibrating dildo?
nano contact lenses that enable me to see through clothes!!! now that would be an interesting nanotech advance.
var sig = function() { sig(); }
And here I thought it referred to anything written with a reasonable text editor. I'd better remove that nanotech engineer line on my CV then...
It is I suppose some kind of audio-vibratory-physio-molecular transport device?
