[2] Definition of Biomolecular Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology existing in living systems and resulting from biologists learning to use biomolecules as components for molecular nanotechnology.

[3] DNA Nanotechnology
The ability for DNA to store information, its high aspect ratio, self-assembly capabilities and electronic properties make it an important material for nanotechnology.

[4] Quantum Biology
Actomyosin complexes are a molecular railway that allows muscle contraction and vesicle transport. "Matsuno argues that actomyosin functions as a heat engine (a device that converts heat energy into mechanical energy) that is able to maintain a constant velocity due to quantum mechanical coherence and entanglement."

[5] Nanotubes
One dimensional fullerenes with a cylindrical shape (nanotubes) are a proving to be useful as molecular components for nanotechnology.

[6] Alchemy, The Next Generation
Nanotechnology differs from alchemy in that it is based on a more modern material model. However, the goals are basically the same, to transform matter with elemental precision, this time with help from Mendeleyev and Pauling.

[7] Nanotechnology With Carbon Nanotubes
"Columns, pipes, bearings and springs are important for architecture, plumbing and machinery. Carbon nanotubes are molecular cylinders that are rapidly extending our ability to manufacture molecular scale devices.

[8] Inorganic Nanotubes
The arrangement of atoms into cylindrical nanocrystals is a stable phase for numerous elements. The inert nature of boron nitride and tungsten disulfide nanotubes makes them particularly durable molecular components for NEMS.

[9] Nanotube Electronic Devices
Energy gaps, symmetry breaking, molecular transistors and constructive deconstruction are a few of the issues involved in nanotube base electronic devices.

[12] Coupling
All machinery, big and small, uses energy coupling to carry out its function. Quantum coupling is a predictable phenomena (analogous to planetary motion) that makes both life and nanotechnology possible.
