  5. Nanocircuitry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanocircuitry

    Nanocircuits are electrical circuits operating on the nanometer scale where quantum mechanical effects become important. One nanometer is equal to 10 −9 meters or a row of 10 hydrogen atoms. With such progressively smaller circuits, more can be fitted on a computer chip.

  6. Nanotechnology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanotechnology

    Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 nanometers (nm). At this scale, commonly known as the nanoscale, surface area and quantum mechanical effects become important in describing properties of matter. This definition of nanotechnology includes all types of research and technologies that deal ...

  8. Picometre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picometre

    The picometre is one thousand femtometres, one thousandth of a nanometre (⁠ 1 / 1000 ⁠ nm), one millionth of a micrometre (also known as a micron), one billionth of a millimetre, and one trillionth of a metre. [2] The symbol μμ was once used for it. [3] It is also one hundredth of an ångström, an internationally known (but non-SI) unit ...
