EXPLANATION
The smallest wire on a chip is measured in microns. Current chips have
wires that are less than one micron wide, while a human hair is about
100 microns thick.
The smallest physical units in my computer are the electron holes in the
P-N junctions of the semiconductors: they are so small that they are
not even there: it's just an imbalance in the electromagnetic force. If
that's not quite the answer you're looking for, then you can go with the
diode on the VLSI chip that contains that P-N junction.
