size dependent energy levels

What are Size Dependent Energy Levels?

Size dependent energy levels refer to the phenomenon where the energy levels of a material change as its dimensions approach the nanoscale. This is primarily due to quantum confinement, which alters the electronic and optical properties of nanomaterials. When the size of a material becomes comparable to the wavelength of an electron's wave function, the material's behavior deviates significantly from its bulk counterpart.
