Characterizing nanomaterials involves understanding their size, shape, surface area, and composition. Techniques used for characterization include:
- Electron Microscopy: Provides high-resolution images of nanomaterials. - X-ray Diffraction: Determines the crystalline structure. - Spectroscopy: Analyzes the chemical composition and electronic properties. - Atomic Force Microscopy: Measures surface topography at the nanoscale.
