nanoskaaleissa
Nanoskaaleissa (Finnish for "in the nanoscale") describes phenomena or measurements occurring at nanometer length scales, typically from about 1 to 100 nanometers. At these scales, material properties often differ from those in bulk due to a large surface-to-volume ratio and emerging quantum effects, making nanoskaaleissa a central focus of nanoscience and nanotechnology.
In nanoskaaleissa, surface atoms play a dominant role, leading to size-, shape-, and chemistry-dependent changes in
Investigation and fabrication at nanoskaaleissa rely on specialized techniques. Imaging and characterization commonly use electron microscopy
Representative nanoskaaleissa phenomena include plasmonic resonances in metallic nanoparticles, size-tunable emission from quantum dots, and unique
Applications span electronics, photonics, catalysis, medicine, and environmental sensing. By controlling size, shape, and surface chemistry,
Challenges in nanoskaaleissa include ensuring reproducibility and scalable manufacturing, assessing environmental and health impacts, ensuring stability
