What are Practical Applications of Size Dependent Energy Levels?
One of the most notable applications is in the field of photovoltaics, where tuning the energy levels of nanomaterials can enhance the efficiency of solar cells. In catalysis, nanoparticles with specific energy levels can lower the activation energy of chemical reactions, making processes more efficient. Additionally, in drug delivery, nanoparticles can be engineered to release drugs at targeted sites within the body by exploiting their size-dependent energy levels.
