摘要

"If only one idea had to be passed on to the next generation, it is the concept of atoms and molecules, and that everything is made of them," wrote physicist Richard Feynman in his famous Lectures on Physics in 1970. Indeed, even today, one cannot think of a more powerful message to pass on to our children. The world of atoms and molecules is intricately integrated into the thinking of every materials scientist and engineer. Be it a new car bumper, the next generation of computer chips, or a discovery of the latest drug molecule—the understanding of molecular structure and how it influences the behavior and properties of molecules and materials is the fundamental goal of much of our current materials research effort. As we enter the 21st century, a truly grand challenge facing our materials research community is to educate and excite the general public about our scientific world, and help create a scientifically literate society. A more informed public will naturally be better prepared to understand complex issues ranging from global warming and energy conservation to genetically modified foods and nutrition.
