Shockwaves in nanotechnology can be generated through several techniques:
Laser-induced shockwaves: High-intensity laser pulses are focused onto a target material, causing rapid heating, vaporization, and subsequent shockwave formation. Mechanical impact: Nanoscale projectiles can be used to impact a surface, generating shockwaves through the material. Explosive materials: Nanoscale explosives can create shockwaves when detonated, useful in confined environments.
