If you were to zoom into a lobster's shell on the microscopic scale you'd see chitin crystals arranged like stacks of plywood.

如果你在微观尺度上放大龙虾的壳，你会看到甲壳素晶体像胶合板堆一样排列。

The process of building nanobots is difficult and has to be done slowly and precisely because it's done on microscopic scales.

建造纳米机器人的过程很困难，必须缓慢而精确地完成，因为它是在微观尺度上完成的。

In the quantum world, what you're trying to do is get that ability to control nature at that tiny, minuscule, microscopic scale that allows you to access those quantum states.

在量子世界中，你要做的是获得在微小、微观、微观尺度上控制自然的能力，让你能够访问那些量子态。

And this is an amazing property, but it happens at a very, very microscopic scale because we produce these materials as thin films, so sometimes even one million times smaller than a millimeter.

这是一个令人惊奇的特性，但它发生在非常非常微观的尺度上，因为我们将这些材料生产为薄膜，所以有时甚至比一毫米小一百万倍。
