The three-dimensional person of Barak Obama just half a millimeter-sized managed to create with the help of nanotechnology Professor of the Department of Engineering at the University of Michigan John Hurt. We made the portraits with colleagues a Friday evening. 

We thought it would be fun »says Hart. For the construction of «nanobamas», named as the tiny prosopakia, researchers have transformed the famous poster Shepard Feri (where the person depicted in the political red, white and blue) in a linear plan. Then the dwarf and laser printing on glass creating a glass «mask». With the help of ultraviolet radiation transferred the mask on a piece of silicone, which is in the process, through high-temperature chemical reaction, «filled» with nanotubes. 

The Junior portraits of the new president of the United States, which is smaller than a grain of salt, consisting of approximately 150 million carbon nanotubes each. To photograph the special epistratefsan electron microscope high-precision, but believe that those nanoglypta constitute the ideal opportunity for the general public to be informed about the applications of nanotechnology.
