What Are the Challenges in Studying Crystal Systems at the Nanoscale?
Despite the advances in technology, several challenges remain:
Size Effects: The properties of nanomaterials often differ from their bulk counterparts due to quantum confinement and surface effects. Complexity: Nanoscale materials can exhibit complex behaviors, such as phase transitions, that are difficult to predict and study. Instrumentation Limitations: High-resolution techniques are often expensive and require specialized expertise.
