If we are ever to cross the 100-nano barrier in electronics, we need to develop nano structures that let electrons move through, as they do through wires and semiconductors. And these structures must survive in the real world of air, water, boiling temperatures.

One of the issues in electronics is that we work only in two scales - transistors and collections of transistors - and that's the device. But to take full advantage of nano, we're going to have to think about that full hierarchy of levels of structure.

Used to discuss objects or processes on an incredibly tiny scale, usually invisible to the naked eye.

Small Scale

When precision is crucial, especially in science or engineering, 'nano' is often used.

Precision Required

While 'nano' means one billionth, it is not typically used for time except in 'nanoseconds'.

Not for Time

In computing, 'nano' highlights the speed and efficiency of processors or operations.

Computing Speed

Predominantly used in technology-related contexts to signify quick durations.

Tech Intensive

'Nano' as in nanotechnology involves manipulating matter at the atomic level.

Advanced Technology

Implies something is based on highly advanced or sophisticated technology.

Cutting-Edge Implication

Refers to the iPod Nano, highlighting it is a proper noun, not a general term.

Product Specific

'Nano' can denote a technological generation, like the iPod Nano, indicating a smaller, sleeker version.

Generational Technology

 That's how small that is. And microscopes that we have today can actually see individual atoms. So these are some pictures of individual atoms. Each bump here is an individual atom. This is a ring of cobalt atoms. So this whole world, the nano world, this area in here
