One Tiny Motor

[bh357]

Physicists build world's smallest motor using nanotubes and etched silicon <br /><br />This thing is pretty amazing: 500 nanometers across (about 300 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair), rotor between 100 and 300 nanometers long, carbon nanotube shaft between 5 and 10 nanometers thick.<br /><br />They expect to be able to reduce the size even further.

roscoe <br />Great site and good people to work with.<br /><br />WoodRust and bluewater19:<br />YUP! Real radios Glow in the dark and keep you warm at night <br /><br />Where do I find the B+ <br />This cold hearted and cool running ICOM 737 just performs.. sometimes LOL<br /><br />But fold back/over circuits don't like SWR! But then a properly built antenna doesn't need a transmatch! <br />How does this relate to boating?? Easy, the proper prop on a boat does the same thing as a antenna!
