Single-Nanoparticle Maps Pave the Way for Better, Safer Nanotechnology

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
A method that combines electron microscopy and optical microscopy to map individual nanoparticle responses in different situations and contexts could pave the way for better nanomaterials and safer nanotechnology. Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden and the Technical University of Denmark developed the method and have discovered why different polycrystalline nanoparticles behave so distinctly when combined with hydrogen. Maps of individual nanoparticles. The eight images show eight different nanoparticles of the same substance, palladium. Each nanoparticle...Read full article

    nano
    An SI prefix meaning one billionth (10-9). Nano can also be used to indicate the study of atoms, molecules and other structures and particles on the nanometer scale. Nano-optics (also referred to as nanophotonics), for example, is the study of how light and light-matter interactions behave on the nanometer scale. See nanophotonics.
