Abstract

The trend to smaller and smaller structures, that is, miniaturization, is well known in the manufacturing and microelectronics industries, as evidenced by the rapid increase in computing power through reduction on chips of the area and volume needed per transistor (Roher 1993). In the materials area this same trend towards miniaturization also is occurring, but for different reasons. Smallness in itself is not the goal. Instead, it is the realization, or now possibly even the expectation, that new properties intrinsic to novel structures will enable breakthroughs in a multitude of technologically important areas (Siegel 1991; Gleiter 1989).
