The idea to build microscopic machines and operate as building robots for the production of the organization and reorganization of the objects at the molecular level is not easy to believe when there is not to introduce this technology. This concept was proposed by Richard Feynman in his 1959 speech “A lot of space at the bottom.” It was the first conference to deal with the principles of nanotechnology, but it was not a new idea.
Before Feynman talked about the idea of nanotechnology, which has already been proposed by James Clerk Maxwell in 1867. He proposed an experiment of small entity called Maxwell’s demon is able to manipulate individual molecules.
Richard Adolf Zsigmondy was the first to use the characterization of nano-sized particles, in 1914. It was determined that 1 / 10, 00000 of an inch of which developed the first classification system based on the size of nanoscale particles. Law
Moore has better codified the concept of influence. Gordon Moore of Intel predicted in 1965 about how modern circuits contain more features than many devices have been produced for the market. This law has been maintained for almost 50 years.
Nanotechnology has been defined by Norio Taniguchi of Tokyo Science University in 1974. Was the treatment of separation, consolidation, and deformation of materials by one atom or molecule.
The concept of nanotechnology to engineering through molecular manufacturing concept was first applied by Eric Drexler. He suggested that if the atoms are considered then tight ball molecules marble collection. These molecules have become standard tools such as ladder engines when snapped together. Despite the size of the nanoscale, these tools work the same way as their larger counterparts did. The moving parts of nano machines have been formed by atoms held together by the force of its own obligations. Drexler finally expected that these nano robots would be used as an assembler to pick up the atoms in any way.
By applying this simple view of what the molecule to the industry, Drexler argues that coal can be converted into diamond chips and the equipment can be sand. By rearranging the atoms that compose these materials, the process is drastically reduced and its products of value occurs at a faster rate. This is why nanotechnology was presented by Drexler and science exclusively revolved around the molecule of manufacture.
