What are the Methods for Inducing Solid State Reactions?
Several methods can be employed to induce solid state reactions in nanotechnology: - Mechanical Milling: A process where reactant powders are subjected to high-energy collisions, leading to the formation of nanostructures. - Thermal Treatments: Heating the solid reactants to a specific temperature to initiate the reaction. - Laser Ablation: Using high-energy laser pulses to induce reactions on the surface of solid materials. - Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): Involves the deposition of a solid material from a vapor phase onto a substrate, often used to create thin films and nanowires.
