They were talking about getting to fifty nanometer precision by shrinking to a millimeter. But, what if ou wanted to make a nanometer object? Then, you should be able to get to subnanometer precision.
They should be able to pattern a hydrogel, shrink it into a given nano-object to subnanometer object.
One could imagine creationg a whole nano-manufacturing system all in one go … with one patterning by lasers, and one shrinkage into a nano-manufacturing system.
