Nanomaterials can be constructed by top down techniques, producing very small structures from larger pieces of material, for example by etching to create circuits on the surface of a silicon microchip ...

The classification of nanomaterials is based on the number of dimensions of a material, which are outside the nanoscale (<100 nm) range. Accordingly, in zero-dimensional (0D) nanomaterials all the ...

Over time the focus of nanotech research has gradually shifted from development of high-quality nanomaterials and investigation of their physical properties to the application side. Biomedical ...

Controlling the structure of matter through atom-by-atom synthesis is a fundamental tenet of chemistry. Understanding the formation, structure, and performance of nanomaterials indeed relies on this ...
