There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom:
An Invitation to Enter a New Field of Physics. This transcript
of the classic talk that Richard Feynman gave on December 29th
1959 at the annual meeting of the American Physical Society at
the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) was first published
in the February 1960 issue of Caltech's Engineering and Science,
which owns the copyright. It has been made available on the web

Enzyme Molecular Motor Runs For 40
Minutes. Coupling the organic and inorganic, biological engineers
at Cornell University have demonstrated the feasibility of extremely
small, self-propelled bionic machines that do their builders'
bidding in plant and animal cells, including those in humans.

Molecular Machine Built From Synthetic
DNA. A team of researchers led by award-winning New York University
chemistry professor Nadrian C. Seeman have built a machine from
DNA, the genetic material of all living organisms. Constructed
from synthetic DNA molecules, the device has two rigid arms that
can be rotated between fixed positions.
