MEMS technology

The world's tiniest steam engine uses lasers instead of coal
Despite the erratic energy delivery, the fact that a micro-scale heat engine can actually do work proves that the statistical nature of thermodynamics is not an insurmountable obstacle to such an engine. And that, in turn, means that micro-engines ...
