Researchers make world's fastest molecular shuttle

Thanks to a clever chemical design, researchers at the University of Amsterdam's Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS) have succeeded in making a very fast molecular machine. The moving parts shift more than one nanometer relative to each other in a record-breaking time of 30 billionths of a second. The results were recently published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
