Several challenges arise when studying complexity in nanotechnology:
1. Measurement: At the nanoscale, measuring and characterizing materials requires advanced techniques such as atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). 2. Modeling: Creating accurate models to predict nanoscale behavior involves complex mathematical and computational methods. 3. Interdisciplinary Knowledge: Researchers need a strong understanding of various fields including physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering to tackle the multifaceted nature of nanoscale phenomena.
