Convergence between technology, physics, chemistry and biology

Exploit the specific properties of the world at atomic scale (mesoscopic and quantum effects)

If I were asked for an area of science and engineering that will most likely produce the breakthroughs of tomorrow, I would point to nanoscalescience and engineering

• Processors performance X 106

(Gflops -> Pflops)

• Small mass storage devices → multi-tera bit levels

• Smart nanosensors: collecting, processing and communicating massive amounts of data with minimal size, weight, and power consumption

• Higher transmission frequencies : more efficient utilization ofoptical spectrum to provide at least 10 times the current bandwidth

• Quantum computing

Current data storage density ~ 109 bits/cm2

1 bit ~ 100 atoms (at the best)

Theoretical data storage capacity = X 1000 (1012 bits/cm2)

3D => Data storage capacity could be ~ 1016 bits/cm3

Quantum computingShor’s algorithm (1995)

Principle of RSA cryptography: factorization of a number

The solution is easy to verify (multiplication) but difficult to find (factorization in prime number)

Example:

Classical computing: three months to factorize a number of 130 digits and 1010 years (the age of the Universe) for a number of 400 digits

Quantum computing: still three months to factorize a number of 130 digits but only 3 years for a number of 400 digits!

Conclusions

• The control of the matter produced, at the end of the 18th century, a first technological and industrial revolution

• In the middle of the 20th century, the control of the matter on a micrometer scale was at the origin of a second technological revolution, which was concretized by the development of micro electronics

• It is probable that the nanosciences and the nanotechnologies, will constitute, during the 21st century, the third technological and industrial revolution
