nanotechnology
nanotechnology Micromechanics used to develop working devices the size of a few nanometres. US scientists have etched an electric motor from silicon that is smaller than 0.1mm (.0039in) wide. They have also made workable gears with a diameter less than a human hair. Further advances resulted in the manipulation of electrons and individual atoms.
