held at the California Institute of Technology, long before the term "nanotechnology"
was invented (CalTech). Feynman described a technique in his speech that will allow
scientists to direct and control certain atoms and molecules. More than 10 years later,
while studying ultraprecision machining, Professor Norio Taniguchi coined the term
materials at the nanoscale, such as higher strength, lighter weight, increased control of
the light spectrum, and greater chemical reactivity than their larger-scale counterparts.
