随着纳米技术的日新月异,科学家们研制的器具和商品也越来越小,甚至小到仅原子一般大小,但功能却一样不少.今天,一块电脑芯片上可布置几百万个晶体管,这就意味着一台个人电脑的计算能力超过了二战时期美军在诺曼底登陆时所有计算系统加在一起的计算能力.然而电脑芯片的面积还在不断缩小,并有望进入纳米级别,因而在不远的将来,纳米电脑必将诞生.科学家们在尝试设计纳米装置的同时,还设法把这种纳米装置付诸实用.目前科学家已研制出纳米直径的轮子,为的是装配某种微型发动机.瑞士未来学家吉姆·德斯基
With the ever-changing nanotechnology, scientists have developed smaller and smaller appliances and goods, even as small as the atomic size, but have as many functions as today. Today, a few millions of transistors can be placed on a computer chip, It means that the computational power of a personal computer exceeds the computing power of all computing systems that were added together when the U.S. military landed in Normandy during World War II. However, the area of computer chips is still shrinking and is expected to enter the nanometer level, In the future, nano-computers will surely come into being as scientists try to design nanodevices, and at the same time try to put the nanodevices into practical use. Currently, scientists have developed nano-diameter wheels in order to assemble a micro-engine. Jim Deskey
