He can't go on only ordering creation of tiny things (14)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nanotechnology

'creation of tiny things' is the definition.

'he can't go on only ordering' is the wordplay.
'ordering' indicates an anagram.
'he'+'cant'+'go'+'on'+'only'='hecantgoononly'
'hecantgoononly' anagrammed gives 'NANOTECHNOLOGY'.

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
