After more than a decade of work, scientists have completed a 3-d atomic-scale map of a virus that causes the common cold.

经过了超过十二年的研究工作，科学家们已经完成了一种导致普通感冒的病毒的3 - D原子结构示意图。

Nanotechnology might one day allow researchers to make atomic-scale devices that perform the same functions as their large-scale counterparts.

研究者或许有一天会借助纳米科技制作出原子尺度的设备，其功能可与对应的大型设备一致。

She is quick to point out, though, that the atomic scale black hole effect is not gravitational.

然而她很快指出，在原子级大小下的黑洞是不具备引力效应的。

But once we got to the atomic size scale, what happens is we need to be taking into account the fact that matter has these wave-like properties, and we'll learn more about that later, but essentially classical mechanics does not take that into account at all.

但一到到了原子尺度量级，我们必须考虑到物质,这时候有波动性质,关于这点我们今后将会学到更多,但本质上经典力学并,没有考虑这个性质。

So, then we'll get to turn to a new kind of mechanics or quantum mechanics, which will in fact be able to describe what's happening on this very, very small size scale -- so on the atomic size scale on the order of nanometers or angstroms, very small particles.

然后我们要讲到一种,新的力学--量子力学,它可以解释,发生在很小尺度,大约是原子尺寸大小,也就是纳米或埃的量级。

According to scientists from a smattering of institutions, the atomic-scale chickenwire material has the ability to absorb light effectively -- much like a sponge -- over a broad range of wavelengths.
