it might rather be "nobody has ever not seen a photon" probably not but you might be interested in Ball semiconductor.. I haven't been able to find images of their labyrinthine clean-tube fab but it sounds interesting. they build spherical micro ics. its a maskless process it says on their site, so they must be using some form of e-beam technology which is basically like using a sem for a scanner AND an etcher in one.. it must still be r&d. http://www.ballsemi.com/NEW/pictures/Medical/sphere1mm.jpg http://www.ballsemi.com/NEW/Pictures/WhyS/ss1.jpg I see things at the nanoscale all the time. mostly things like plastic dust (usually from a robot arm rubbing some cover) which appear as freakish magrittish boulders on the delicate geometric substrate, but it isn't anywhere near the atomic level.. http://www.veeco.com/nanoconference/technical.asp a vacuum clod lq
