The lecture "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom" was done by a physicist that died in what year?
There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom" was a lecture given by physicist Richard Feynman at an American Physical Society meeting at Caltech on December 29, 1959. Feynman considered the possibility of direct manipulation of individual atoms as a more powerful form of synthetic chemistry than those used at the time. The talk went unnoticed and did not inspire the conceptual beginnings of the field. In the 1990s it was rediscovered and publicised as a seminal event in the field, probably to boost the history of nanotechnology with Feynman's reputation.
Harold Max Rosenberg Harold Max Rosenberg (26 August 1922 – 21 November 1993), was a distinguished experimental physicist who is notable for two successful textbooks: "Low Temperature Solid State Physics" (1963) and "The Solid State" (1975) and over one hundred papers mainly about the electrical, thermal and mechanical properties of solids, especially at low temperatures.
