Now you wanted to consult me about your class presentation on nanotechnology- you're due to give it in next week, aren't you?

你想咨询我一些你关于纳米技的课堂展示的事情——你下周进行展示，对吧？

Developed using modern nanotechnology, the film has hundreds of tiny optical layers designed to emit the specific wavelength of radiation that maximizes cooling.

这款薄膜是利用现代纳米技术开发的，有数百个微小的光学层，用于发出特定波长的辐射，从而以最大限度进行冷却。

Nanotechnology could also revolutionize the way that we generate power.

纳米技术还可以彻底改变我们发电的方式。

Nanotechnology has been used in paints before.

纳米技术之前也曾被应用至涂料当中。

It really is incredible nanotechnology in your pocket right now.

口袋里的纳米技术真是不可议啊。

But actually, nanotechnology allows us to do just that.

但是实际上，运用纳米技术就能实现。

Gerd says he's waiting for someone to make it possible for nanotechnologies to reproduce themselves.

Gerd 说他在等待有人让纳米技术复制自身成为可能。

The application of nanotechnology is a trend.

纳米技术的应用是个趋势。

Zhihong Chen is director of produce Burke nanotechnology Center which boasts what it calls the cleanest room in the world where engineers work around the clock, to push microchip technology into the future and smaller is better.

陈志宏是Produce Burke纳米技术中心的主任，该中心号称是世界上最干净的房间，工程师们在这里夜以继日地工作，推动微芯片技术走向未来，越小越好。

The real test, as the team reports in acs Nano, a nanotechnology journal, came next: half the rats given the new treatment were exposed to a blast of ultrasound.

接下来，研究小组在纳米技术期刊《acs Nano》上发表了真正的测试：接受新实验的老鼠中有一半暴露在超声波冲击波下。

If you look for example at these glass windows, it's very well known that actually nanotechnology is used in some of the colors, for example, gold nanoparticles actually, produce the most durable red color which can be produced.

如果你看一下这些玻璃窗，纳米技术在一些颜色制作中的应用已经广为人知了，例如，金纳米粒子其实可以生产出经久不褪的红色。

One day, we will build a meta material out of nanotechnology that will bend visible light so that anything inside that capsule will become invisible.

有朝一日我们将建造一种来自纳米技术的超材料，它可以弯曲可见光，使胶囊内的任何东西都变得不可见。

He's 68, as I record this podcast, and is involved in two mind-blowing areas of research, nanotechnology and regenerative medicine, or tissue engineering.

在我录制这期播客的时候，他已经68岁了，参与了两个令人兴奋的研究领域，纳米技术和再生医学，或者叫组织工程。

He's one of the founders of quantum computing and was one of the first to introduce the concept of nanotechnology.

他是量子计算的创始人之一，也是最早引入纳米技术概念的人之一。

Today we're going to look at an important area of science, namely nanotechnology.

今天我们要看一个重要的学领域，即纳米技术。
