What are the Challenges in Using Photochemical Reactions for Nanotechnology?
Despite their advantages, there are several challenges associated with photochemical reactions in nanotechnology:
Light Penetration: Difficulty in ensuring uniform light penetration in thick or opaque materials. Control over Reaction: Ensuring that reactions occur only at desired locations and not elsewhere. Material Stability: Some nanomaterials may degrade or lose functionality under prolonged light exposure. Cost: High costs associated with specialized light sources and equipment.
