The two greatest achievements of modern physics occurred in the beginning of the 20th century the first was einsteins development of the theory of relativity the special theory of relativity in 1905 and the general theory of relativity in 1915 this was followed in 1925 by the development of quantum mechanics. This 20th century in physics began with a rush of new insights and happily it is ending in much the same way for example our ability to understand to probe and to structure surfaces has opened up entirely new areas of catalysis and corrosion resistance and an entirely new understanding of phenomena such as friction and adhesion entire optical benches and chemical laboratories are now being fabricated on single chips with nanoscale rotary and linear motors powering the necessary
