· Nanoscience is the science of objects with typical sizes of 1-100 nm. If matter is divided into such small objects…
Multi-layered materials are heterostructures composed of many alternating layers that are generally stacked in a periodic manner. An artificially multi-layered…
Systems confined in one dimension, or quasi-2D systems, include discs or platelets, ultrathin films on a surface and multi-layered materials;…
Systems confined in two dimensions, or quasi-1D systems, include nanowires, nano rods, nanofilaments and nanotubes: again these could either be…
A reduction in the spatial dimension or confinement of particles or quasi particles in a particular crystallographic direction within a…
Living systems are governed by molecular behaviour at the nanometre scale, where chemistry, physics, biology, and computer simulation all now…
· The study of objects and phenomena at a very small scale, roughly 1-100 nanometres (nm)is called as Nanoscale science or…
Metal nanoparticles (NPs) provide optical, magnetic, and electronic properties which are different from the corresponding bulk metal materials, leading to…
Metal nanoparticles (NPs) nowadays represent the key material in vast range of industrial applications ranging from rough industry to fine…
SEMICONDUCTING NANOWIRES Based on the geometry, 1D nanostructures typically consist of four categories: nanowire (NW), nanorod (NR), nanobelt (NB), and…
