Several factors contribute to variability in nanotechnology:
Fabrication Techniques: Different methods like chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or electron beam lithography can produce variations in nanomaterials. Material Properties: Inherent differences in materials at the nanoscale, such as grain boundaries and defects, can lead to variability. Environmental Factors: Conditions such as temperature, humidity, and exposure to chemicals can affect the properties of nanomaterials. Measurement Techniques: Variations in measurement tools and techniques can lead to discrepancies in the characterization of nanomaterials.
