University of Pennsylvania engineers discover natural 'workbench' for nanoscale construction


University of Pennsylvania engineers discover natural 'workbench' for nanoscale construction from PhysOrg.com

Engineers at the University of Pennsylvania have taken a step toward simplifying the creation of nanostructures by identifying the first inorganic material to phase separate with near-perfect order at the nanometer scale. The finding provides an atomically tuneable nanocomposite “workbench” that is cheap and easy to produce and provides a super-lattice foundation potentially suitable for building nanostructures.
