3D computer generated model of a hydrocarbon based nanotechnology bearing
This hydrocarbon based nanotechnology bearing consists of two sheets of 111 diamond that have been bent into two hoops The smaller hoop has been inserted into the larger hoop to produce the bearing The structure is chemically very simple It uses only two atom types carbon and hydrogen and only two bond types carbon carbon single bonds and carbon hydrogen bonds A description of a bearing such as this one can be found at http www zyvex com nanotech bearingProof html Devices such as this have been designed by K Eric Drexler at the Institute of Molecular Manufacturing www IMM com in California and by Ralph Merkle
