Abstract

Broadly speaking, nanoscience refers to a field concerning the production, characterization and exploitation of materials with nanoscale dimensions in at least one dimension. Of special interest are three-dimensionally nanostructured solid-state functional materials with structural features ranging in size from 1 to 100 nm. Functional materials are generally considered as those materials which possess particular native properties required for various modern applications.
