How Does Electrical Stimulation Work at the Nanoscale?
At the nanoscale, materials exhibit unique electrical properties due to quantum effects and increased surface area to volume ratios. Electrical stimulation leverages these properties by applying a controlled electric field to induce specific responses. For instance, nanowires and carbon nanotubes can be aligned or manipulated using electric fields, and nanoparticles can be made to assemble into predefined structures.
