What is Strain in Nanotechnology?

Strain in nanotechnology refers to the deformation or displacement experienced by a material when subjected to external forces at the nanoscale. This deformation can significantly impact the physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials. Strain can be induced intentionally to tune the properties of nanomaterials or can occur unintentionally during fabrication and handling.
