For many years, silver chloride was the gold standard of photographic printing. The chemical’s high photosensitivity made basic imaging possible because it darkens when exposed to light. Now, the material that moved the world from sepia tones to classic black and white may presage the next evolutionary stage for science and technology. Sound like hyperbole? The goal of many researchers over the past few years has been to close the gap between real life and science fiction: Create nanoscopic materials that self-assemble into fully operating systems such as minuscule robots that sweep a...Read full article
