As per Dr. Spiros Michalakis of the California Institute of Technology, the vision of shrinking comes through a method of
creating smaller atoms.

But, they add, the isotopes
created by these storms likely constitute a
small portion of all such
atoms — so the new findings are unlikely to change the way other scientists use them for dating and geotracing.
The enzyme had previously been modified through directed evolution by the Arnold lab and others to
create molecules containing
small rings of three carbon
atoms — essentially half of a bicyclobutane group.
Question: How can a nanobot be
created that is
smaller than an
atom?
The condensate, which is made from around 4000 cooled rubidium
atoms, is trapped inside the beams by the same forces used to
create optical tweezers, which can manipulate particles on a
small scale.
As a demonstration, the JILA team
created a series of images to map
small frequency shifts, or fractions of
atoms in the excited state, across different regions of the lattice.
One by one the larger gold
atoms displace the
smaller atoms of free silver on the surface,
creating more contrast.
These sparks are
created when billions of zinc
atoms shoot from thousands of
small pouches nestled just beneath the surface of a mouse egg cell, researchers from Northwestern University and Argonne National Laboratory report December 15 in Nature Chemistry.

While some engineers are dragging solar energy into the big time, others are getting
small: They have hit upon a novel phenomenon that
creates an electric current in nanotubes, hollow microscopic structures made of carbon
atoms.
Creating even
small numbers of fusing
atoms would be a big deal.
The thermonuclear reactions in the stars
created extraordinary heat and pressures that ripped
small atoms like hydrogen and lithium apart and recombined their parts to produce larger
atoms like plutonium.
Scientists at Western University [Ontario, Canada] have discovered that a
small molecule
created with just 144
atoms of gold can increase solar cell performance by more than 10 per cent.
