Abstract

Nanotechnology, which aims at the ideal miniaturization of devices and machines down to atomic and molecular sizes has been a recent hot topic as a promising high technology for the forthcoming century. By precise control of atoms, molecules, or nano scale objects, new sensors and man-made materials, tera-byte capacity memories, micro scale robots/machines, DNA computers, quantum devices, micro scale distributed intelligence system devices with integrated sensors, actuators and communication tools, etc., would be possible within the near future.
