Talk:Nanoelectromechanical systems

top-down
"The top-down approach can be summarized as "a set of tools designed to build a smaller set of tools". For example, a millimeter sized factory that builds micrometer sized factories which in turn can build nanometer sized devices" Thats kind of nonsense!!! In the Aricle Top-down you find under "Nanotechnology": "
 * Main article: Nanotechnology

Top-down and bottom-up are used as two approaches for assembling nanoscale materials and devices. Bottom-up approaches seek to have smaller (usually molecular) components arrange themselves into more complex assemblies, while top-down approaches seek to create nanoscale devices by using larger, externally-controlled ones to direct their assembly.

The top-down approach often uses the traditional workshop or microfabrication methods where externally-controlled tools are used to cut, mill and shape materials into the desired shape and order. Bottom-up approaches, in contrast, use the chemical properites of single molecules to cause single-molecule components to automatically arrange themselves into some useful conformation. These approaches utilize the concepts of molecular self-assembly and/or molecular recognition. See also Supramolecular chemistry.

Such bottom-up approaches should, broadly speaking, be able to produce devices in parallel and much cheaper than top-down methods, but could potentially be overwhelmed as the size and complexity of the desired assembly increases. "

Stud
This is a really bad stud.

Name
yes it is stud. An explanation what a "Nanoelectromechanical system" means is missing. The name means a combination of electrical pats (e.g. capacitor) and mechanical parts (e.g. oscillating Silicon beam) on one chip with structures smaller than 1µm (Mikro meter)==>Nano. Sorry for my worse english. Because of that, I dont edit this article myselfe.

Not just electronics, but mainly physics!
Seriously, while electronics may be one possible application, there are many more fundamental aspects of nanomechanical systems. This should go into the category physics as well! Akhuettel (talk) 20:34, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
