    For example, multi-layer structures can be fabricated for use in electronic applications. An electrodeposited Fe/Fe oxide multi-layered sample can be an example of this application of magnetic nanocomposites. [35] In applications such as power micro-inductors where high magnetic permeability is desired at high operating frequencies. [36]

  8. Nanoporous materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoporous_materials

    For example, measuring the electrical resistivity of a porous metal can yield the exact concentration of an analyte species in gaseous form. [1] Since the resistivity of the substrate is proportional to the surface area of the porous media, using nanoporous materials will yield higher sensitivity in detecting trace gaseous species than their ...

  9. Nanochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanochemistry

    Nanochemistry is an emerging sub-discipline of the chemical and material sciences that deals with the development of new methods for creating nanoscale materials. [1] The term "nanochemistry" was first used by Ozin in 1992 as 'the uses of chemical synthesis to reproducibly afford nanomaterials from the atom "up", contrary to the nanoengineering and nanophysics approach that operates from the ...
