Nanolithography is the art and science of etching, writing, or printing at the microscopic level, where the dimensions of characters are on the order of nanometres. This includes various methods of modifying semiconductor chips at the atomic level for the purpose of fabricating integrated circuits(ICs). Instruments used in nanolithography include the scanning tunnelling microscope(STM) and the atomic force microscope(AFM). Both allow surface viewing in fine detail without necessarily modifying it. Either the STM or the AFM can be used to etch, write, or print on a surface in single-atom dimensions. 4, record 10, English, - nanolithography

It is also easier to build with moving or jump framework, surface finishing is easier, there are no corners for grain hangups, and hopper bottoms are conical with no valley angles.

Les cellules cylindriques sont également plus faciles à construire avec des coffrages mobiles; elles facilitent le surfaçage, ne renferment aucune encoignure où le grain puisse s'accumuler et, enfin, l'orifice des trémies est conique, ne présentant ainsi aucun angle interne.
