Technology using objects on the pico- and
femto-scale (as nanotechnology would use nanoscale objects). This would involve nucleons
and other elementary particles doing useful work,
involving quantum
effects. Unlike nanotechnology, picotechnology has no feasibility
proofs and remains pure speculation. Also called femtotechnology.
Technology that works on
the picometer
scale - sculpting atoms,
creating new forms of atomic and subatomic matter, or interacting with quantum particles and fields
