1 There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom 12/29/1959 Feynman asked why not put the entire Encyclopedia Britannica (24 volumes) on a pin head (requires atomic scale recording). He proposed to use electron microscope to write the words, and to read the words. He also thought that biological systems were already writing and reading information at the molecular (or nano) scale. 1

22 Silicon probe with a conductive single walled carbon nanotube (<2 nm diameter). The tip is at the end of a flexible cantilever designed for the atomic force microscope. A nanotube-bundle tip was used as the negative electrode to locally oxidize silicon and write the oxide pattern C- Tube. OH - ions (from condensed H 2 O on tip) are driven by the strong field into the solid and induce the oxidation by reacting with Si holes in bulk Si. 22
