For those who got to the end and had no inkling what he's actually doing: The challenge is very hard: You have a bunch of carbon nanotubes that you want to make into a computer circuit, you want to get them to sit down on a silicon wafer in a way that allows you to make billion-element circuits with switch sizes smaller than today's smallest transistors. How do you do this? The solution, in principle, is actually very simple. You suspend a bunch of individual carbon nanotubes in solution. Then you make very fine patterns of things that stick nanotubes and don't stick nanotubes down on your silicon wafer. Then you just wash the nanotubes over the silicon wafer until they stick in the right place. Well, in detail this is actually really really hard to achieve: First, you need a way of generating patterns that are denser than those achievable by modern lithography. People have come up with very clever ways of doing this. Two of the best ways are something called block-copolymer lithography and DNA nanotechnology. In either case what you are doing is making chemical polymers that self-assemble together to create very fine patterns. Second, you need a way of purifying semiconducting carbon nanotubes, cutting them to the exact right length for your circuits, then suspending them in solution. This is actually also no an easy problem, but people have come up with ways of making small polymers (eg, short strands of DNA) that bind onto carbon nanotubes, wrap around them, and suspend them in water. Third, you need to create just the right interaction between the patterns on the surface and nanotubes in suspension for them to land on the right spots and wiggle into place along the patterns you define. This is pretty hard. You need to engineer the right chemical handles onto both the surface and the polymers wrapping the nanotubes. You might have to have the surface help channel stuff into the right place with morphological features. Then you create just the right conditions so that nanotubes will align themselves onto surface patterns via many weak chemical interactions (if the interactions are too strong they can lay down in the wrong directions, make tangled messes, etc). This is pretty hard. People are still figuring this out. Lastly, you need to scale up all of these processes so that IBM or Intel can make perfect wafers with literally trillions of these devices. This is -really- hard because once you get down to nanoscales, thermodynamics fights against you every step of the way. You can make things easier by simplifying the requirements for assembly: eg instead of having nanotubes lay down on the surface to make circuits, just have them all forming parallel arrays pointing in one direction. Use lithography to define the other features that make up the circuit on top of them. Even so, it takes tons and tons of work. Finally, here's the one question that nobody has asked: Why carbon nanotubes? It turns out, it's not impossible for Intel or IBM to make transistors that are about as small as carbon nanotube transistors. The problem is that if the electricity flowing through the transistor is carried by silicon, there will be so much power dissipation that your CPU will literally melt itself before you can finish one game of Call of Duty. Semiconducting carbon nanotubes, are just about, the most power efficient semiconductors known. Graphene could be even better but it's actually not a semiconductor, so, no real good way to make it into a good transistor. So, carbon nanotubes are really, one of just a handful of materials that could possibly allow Moore's Law to continue down to transistors on the size of 10 nm wide or so, which is why IBM is still at it. (BTW, 10 nm transistor is not the same as a 10 nm node on the semiconductor roadmap. The 10 nm node actually has much bigger transistors). Anyways, I hope IBM succeeds. I'm rooting for them.
Fascinating! I can only hope that carbon nanotube and graphene based technology reaches factory production in my lifetime. The uses of graphene alone, blows my mind! I can't help but think that if we were able to make an AI that could learn and do complex equations for us and assist us that our technological advancements would blow ahead by decades or even centuries. I digress though. Thank you for the more detailed explanation Mr. Han! When he explained the difficulties of aligning carbon nanotubes, I had thought they were going to employ the use of tiny robots to do it haha! Tiny robots with really tiny precise claws.
Really bro? All that buildup just to tell us that we're missing "chemistry"? You're not even gonna elaborate on anything specific, like a new chemical process being developed or whatever?
I think they might have signed something or nondisclosure agreement with someone, probably the military and that is why he didn't elaborate, or maybe just maybe they have not had real tangible success so far.

So the first step I was thinking was...you need a model or set of parameters for the particles to follow. Let's dumb it down and say it's a flower vase. Simple shape to make in a 3D modeling program. Then what if we set each point as a place for the particles to go. That is all sound hypothetically...but then how do you get the particles to move there? And what kind of particles are these? Could we somehow involve magnets or magnet fields? Way above my pay grade, but if I had the money for it I would invest heavily into this tech. Seems world changing
As a sculptor, I gotta tell you you have to re-work your opening metaphore. "millions of tiny stone dust particles" can indeed be assembled, dude, its called clay, and you build it up by adding, building the form up in space, as opposed to the subtractive or carving method employed by a stone carver, removing dust.
Yah. Total modern war fare 🤣 as if it will be used to enrichen basic as humans life. In fact, maybe it will be "helpful" to rid this planet earth of us unnecessary breathers, i guess....
Would be cool to Flash Build.. Have a computer linked to an area. The area full of electric chips or whatever. Flash the blueprint on the computer to the chips, therefore electrifying a hologram of the blueprint. Pump the nanotubes in and they'd begin to form around the hologram. After some time, turn off the hologram for the nanotubes to cool and become solid. -THIS IS ALL IMAGINARY-
When we learn to do this properly we can start creating open source computational hardware which can be expected to be safer than current hardware, because of possible manufacturer backdoors. Cheaper, smaller, faster, more power efficient and safer.
+schmoukiz Oh uh, I thought you were just joking around. "But you can't disprove it" is the *worst* reasoning for any argument, though. I mean, you can't disprove there isn't a planet out there made entirely of silly putty, inhabited by sentient teapots, somewhere scientists haven't found it yet, but that doesn't mean the claim has any substance to it.
For anyone disappointed in the science depth or lack thereof the Ted talk. It's because he was basically a sales man trying to get investors/donors or whatever scientists call their source of money
i am thinking about immortality here , modifying ourself so much so that we can literally wander around in space , go through highest of temperature to lowest finding about the secrets about the universe . Spreading our consiousness to the the whole universe maybe multiverse . Able to turn ourselve into any smaller or bigger being . Then manipulating matter with our thoughts . actually making what we imagine . Maybe there is a being who has already done it . Maybe we are part of its thoughts . I can see so much possibility .Because of this. Thanks TED
Sand sculptures are statues made from millions of tiny particles... at least I would consider that a statue made from a pile of dust, hardly impossible.
Y’know, I’m an aspiring engineer, and I love machining. I just watched an ad that basically just told me that engineering is gonna die. I know nobody cares, and in a about a few years somebody will randomly comment on this when it’s on their recommended, but that hit me in the feels y’know?
cool talk but he kinda stated the obvious :/ I'm currently in my 4th semester in engineering in nanotechnology and ever since 0 semester( trial run to see if you have what it takes) my professors have told us that the main way we are going to make any advances in the field is if we focus on chemistry, the best way to create and use nanoparticles is via chemical reactions
Speach was nice but i can't comprehend what is nanomaterials exactly. I think he should do more in depth information but it was benefit for beginner like me
He talked a lot and brought two images, but he didn't get to a point in the first eight minutes. I hope he can be more result orientated with his research in the next fifteen years. I didn't learn anything new from this.
What about proteins that work like machines in nature. Could this be something that we could use to help with these issues? May seem ignorant to state but may be something in the thought.
It's not a promise. It's to educate and appeal to people who are interested and/or qualified in this line of research and development to help them come up with solutions to the problem.
josh71111 I admire all those nice people working on it. My sorrow is about the fact that we still don't see any tangible snippets of success. At least nothing on this TED talk. And I haven't found any practical implementations on the Foresight Institute website either. It's not to say I am not excited by the idea of nanotechnology. But my layman's impression is that in 2017 it's still nothing but an idea.
At least he's figured out the biggest problem. Is you will never efficiently assemble them using any man made process. You need to rely on chemistry doing the work and then you can just mine the stuff. I can picture a company going to the coal mines filling them with a chemical solution that then converts the coal into carbon nano tubes maybe it takes 100 years for them to change but worth the wait.
computer chips don't shrink in size by half, and their power doesn't grow twice every year. if you compare two Intel subsequent technologies, you'll learn that those chip got only like 10% more powerful. and chip shrinking... size of single core transistor changes in technology to technology like 30%. but Intel used to introduce new technology every second year and now slowed as it's getting way harder to shrink this tiny transistors anymore. and shrinking only affects core transistors. and every time they put more transistors on chip. so the chip size stays relatively constant.
here's my uneducated idea. You could (maybe possibly) use sound waves to control large quantities of nanoparticles, but they'd still have to be malleable like the spooky dust from. (the day the earth stood still)
8:55 He forgot warfare. I get that it's not something that scientists like to talk about or entertain, but it's like a giant elephant in the room. If nanotechnology gets really going and starts to revolutionize fields left and right, you better believe warfare will be one of those fields that benefits from this tech.
So we just have to wait until the exponential innovate hits nanotech and in since that moment in 4 months everybody will be riding transformers to work
The creators of the simulation program we're involved in are great builders of images that are made from the processing of information. Man will never be able to build as well as they can.
I have to wonder, Is this like the flying car, or the transistor? A hollow hope (like last time), or simply something that needs a second shot to completely revolutionize everything?
0:40 "The only way you get a statue out of dust is to let the statue build itself" 3:00 "We couldn't place one by one millions of particles together" This remarks are only true with the current state of technology. In the long run massively parallel pick and place positional assembly of single atoms (and bigger assemblies of them) to advanced systems is predictably much more performant and desirable than chemical synthesis (in liquid phase) and subsequent self assembly. Chemical synthesis (in liquid phase) and self assembly will be powerful tools though to get to positional assembly (more precisely: mechanosynthesis of diamondoid materials in machine phase). Also these soft/wet techniques may make early forms of nanotube-computers and other things the presenter is talking about possible a bit sooner - early forms. 7:18 "Mother nature builds everything this way". There are big areas where the capabilities of nature and the capabilities of human technology do not intersect. Both ways. While there is lots of nature we do not understand and can't replicate there are also many examples of human technology that are probably "eternally" inaccessible by incremental evolution.
What if you had a 3D printer, with NanoTech Particle and you would upload a design and it would program these nano particles to build themselves into whatever you want...
wouldn't it make sense to create a dna molecule that provides the instruction to build the thing you want using raw materials that the manufacture feeds the product through cell division?
You would have had a bucket (or sandcastle mould) and water to assemble the particles. Perhaps that could be interpreted as the chemistry referred to in the talk.
Agreed. I work with concrete, and regularly make statues, fountains, flower pots, paving stones, and all kinds of stuff out of millions of individual particles: gravel, sand, cement, etc. I get what he's talking about, but he could have used a better metaphor.
where can i find the scripts of this video I'm learning English so I would like to obtain it cause I will be very useful for me at the moment to compare my writing with the scripts.
He sounded like he wanted to convince investors to invest into nanotechnologie without saying it, and failed. well not failed... the arguments are really convincing but he sounded really nervous

We have seen devices assemble themselves for various uses already. Why wasn't that referenced and expanded upon?
Cause they do so in a mechanical large object way. Working on nano scale your talking about atoms moving by themselves but in a way we want.

Where's the more in depth talk about the chemistry they are using?
It's been a long time since I last watched something this good in this channel. Keep up like this!
All things he said sums up to chemistry on the nanoscale. But there should have been more information on progress made so far.
So it's still nothing but a promise, not a single practical achievement is shown:(
It's not a promise. It's to educate and appeal to people who are interested and/or qualified in this line of research and development to help them come up with solutions to the problem.

Give it time bro.These are at the highest levels of technology.So obviously, it takes time.
At least he's figured out the biggest problem. Is you will never efficiently assemble them using any man made process.

I think it more likely that people will be changing their iPhones to the flavor of the month...
I think its more likely, that they will be building a space elevator...

elevators to space aren't possible however spires to helipads to satellites are possible lol
The creators of the simulation program we're involved in are great builders of images that are made from the processing of information. Man will never be able to build as well as they can.
can't wait to get my nano construction kit and create the gray goo
Nanites for space mining. it may be easier to assemble something from a bunch of nanites than trying to land a single shuttle on a asteroid.
I have to wonder, Is this like the flying car, or the transistor? A hollow hope (like last time), or simply something that needs a second shot to completely revolutionize everything?
Nano is a fair ideal. At least, kilo is the ideal that systems like our current should achieve at least.Ultimate sustainability is the key.

BUT WE CAN'T TRUST EVERYONE TO USE THEM RIGHT!
Uuuuhhh ... sand castles building themselves? I hadn't realised that I shouldn't have been able to build them as a kid :)
You would have had a bucket (or sandcastle mould) and water to assemble the particles. Perhaps that could be interpreted as the chemistry referred to in the talk.
how about using A.I. based magnets which would put the statue together?
How about using engineering games using knowledgeable nanotechnological constructs to build possible scenarios? What do you think?
Louis CK gives the best description of a double edged sword.
compel millions of particles to build a statue... => casting.
Agreed. I work with concrete, and regularly make statues, fountains, flower pots, paving stones, and all kinds of stuff out of millions of individual particles: gravel, sand, cement, etc.
I get what he's talking about, but he could have used a better metaphor.
You mean like inside out?
my interest in nano technology is IMMORTALITY.
thank you sir
& in time, the nanobots will hold TED talks on the next step in nano-nano technology.
Naa ko diri para sa STS
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA gotcha!
Sounds like he's saying nano builds on us. Morgellons
Let me summarize this for you: "we still havent figure out how to create things at nano scale"
Cristi C 😂😂😂
where can i find the scripts of this video I'm learning English so I would like to obtain it cause I will be very useful for me at the moment to compare my writing with the scripts.
Can nano particles be used for telecommunications and synthetic telepathy?
What are the possible innovations can nanotechnology offer? para sa sts :'(
aren't crystals self assembling structures?
not just the hippie ones, but all of them... salt, sugar,...
and aren't solid metals also crystalline?
is holographic nano printing possible for computer chips?
we need atomically precise manufacturing
We made something recently... We created life.
Almost sounded like a rant as to why it's taking to long to get anywhere with nanotech.
Kaway kaway mga ka buddy kung nanunuod neto..Hahaha
He sounded like he wanted to convince investors to invest into nanotechnologie without saying it, and failed. well not failed... the arguments are really convincing but he sounded really nervous
BTW nano tech scares the crap out of me almost as much as A.G.I. or messing with DNA
Or, you could put the dust in a mold and fill it with glue.
Summary: his team is using chemistry to build stuff with nanoparticles.
