Engineers look inside nanoparticles to explore how their shape improves energy storage

Monday, April 25, 2016 - 07:50 in Physics & Chemistry

Many recent big technological advances in computing, communications, energy and biology have relied on very small materials, nanoparticles, with dimensions less than 1/1,000th the thickness of a sheet of paper. However, it can be hard to determine the best nanomaterials for these applications because observing nanoparticles in action requires high spatial resolution in “messy,” dynamic […]
