Furnaces provide the necessary high-temperature environment to drive chemical reactions and phase transformations. For example:
- Thermal Decomposition: High temperatures decompose precursor materials to form nanoparticles. - Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): A furnace enables the deposition of material layers from gaseous precursors. - Annealing: This process improves the crystallinity of nanomaterials by heating them to specific temperatures.
