AI Thread Summary
"Nanosystems" by Drexler discusses diamondoid nanomachines, a concept that has gained interest since its publication in 1992. Current research on diamondoid nanomachines is limited, with few companies or academic institutions actively pursuing this area. Alternative search engines like Dogpile can yield more diverse results than Google for this niche topic. Several resources, including websites and conference abstracts, provide updated information on nanotechnology developments. Further exploration of these resources is encouraged for those seeking the latest advancements in the field.

"Nanosystems" by Drexler -- diamondoid nanomachines

I recently picked up a copy of "Nanosystems" by Drexler.

Are there any companies or schools currently doing research on diamondoid nanomachines? Google hasn't revealed much so far.

"Nanosystems" came out in 1992. What book should I pick up next for more recent developments in this field?

You mentioned having used Google to find information. Why limit yourself to this one search engine? I used “Dogpile” and the search terms “diamondoid nanomachines” and found these, including your book, plus more current information:

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
