1959 Richard P. Feynman

“There’s plenty of room at the bottom”

History – Why now?

“What would the properties of materials be if we could really arrange the atoms the way we want them? They would be very interesting to investigate theoretically. I can't see exactly what would happen, but I can hardly doubt that when we have some control of the arrangement of things on a small scale we will get an enormously greater range of possible properties that substances can have, and of different things that we can do.”

1974 Norio Taniguchi - Coins the term “Nanotechnology” “Nanotechnology mainly consists of the processing of, separation, consolidation, and deformation of materials by one atom or one molecule”

Periods of technological revolutions that developed in different regions throughout the world that correspond to the regions of global power for the given time period

A new Technological revolution?

First technological revolution (1780 to 1840) - steam engine, the textiles industry and mechanical engineering. Centered in the UK.

Second technological revolution (1840 to 1900) - railways, electricity, and the steel industry. Centered in England, Germany and the United States.

Third technology revolution (1900 to 1950) - electrical engines, heavy chemicals, automobiles, and mass production of consumer durables. Largely based in the USA.

Fourth technology revolution (1950 to present) - synthetics, organic chemicals, and computers. Pacific Basin, Japan, and the United States have been the epicenters.

Fifth technological revolution (present to …) - nanotechnology. Centered in ??
