How Do Atomic and Molecular Changes Impact Material Properties?
At the nanoscale, changes in atomic and molecular structures can lead to significant modifications in material properties, including:
Electrical Conductivity: Nanomaterials can exhibit enhanced or reduced electrical conductivity. Mechanical Strength: Nanostructured materials can be stronger or more flexible than their bulk counterparts. Thermal Conductivity: The way heat is conducted can be altered at the nanoscale. Optical Properties: Nanomaterials can have unique optical characteristics, such as plasmonic effects.
