Recently, following the development of scanning probe microscopes, scientists have taken on the task of observing and manipulating individual atoms and molecules The dream of nanotechnologies and the concept of molecular engineering are gradually taking concrete form at the convergence of different fields: nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and cognitive science. Undoubtedly, we will soon be able to manufacture nanostructures atom by atom, molecule by molecule, a major technical development.
