What are the Applications of Different Sized Nanomaterials?
The size of nanomaterials can significantly impact their applications. For example:
Quantum dots (2-10 nm): Used in bio-imaging, solar cells, and quantum computing. Nanoparticles (1-100 nm): Utilized in drug delivery, catalysis, and as antibacterial agents. Nanotubes (1-100 nm in diameter): Used in electronics, conductive materials, and structural composites. Nanowires (1-100 nm in diameter): Employed in sensors, nanoelectronics, and photonics.
