- Brownian motion
- The finger problems – in particular: Jittery finger problem and Sloppy finger problem
- Nature does it differently
- Diffusion transport
- Thermally driven assembly
- Thermally driven folding
- The heat-overpowers-gravity size-scale
- Want an intuitive feel for the speed of atoms?
- Often mistaken as a reason that makes macroscale style machinery at the nanoscale (making up advanced Nanofactories) impossible.
