Abstract:While bridging the gap between the atomic structures and bulk matters, nanomaterials are of great interests for fundamental understanding as well as for different application perspectives. In this article, it is proposed to provide a review regarding various synthesis processes of nanomaterials, growth mechanisms and a range of experimental techniques to discuss remarkable properties of materials at the nanoscale dimensions. Equilibrium (ambient or vacuum thermal annealing) as well as non-equilibrium (for exam… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
