Abstract :
Nanotechnology focuses on research and development of recording devices with bit densities on the order of 10/sup 14/ b/cm/sup 2/ and on quantum ICs with delay times on the order of 10/sup -12/ s. The possible field interactions down to plasmon states using the complex precise control instrumentation of nanotechnology are sketched. Reversible decomposition and atom tunneling are possible. Different technological modules of nanotechnology permit operation in air, gas, liquids, and ultrahigh vacuum. Nanotechnology requires complex probe-tip control mechanisms. The basis elements of the technology system are the probe tip as the source of particles, coarse and fine positioning control of manipulators, an electronic control system, and the control of technological parameters.<>
