Stony Brook and Nankai scientists find stable 2D structures
with unique properties
The National Nanotechnology Initiative defines
nanotechnology as the understanding and control of matter at the nanoscale, at
dimensions of approximately 1 and 100 nanometers, where unique phenomena enable
novel applications. Nanotechnology is taking the world by storm,
revolutionizing the materials and devices used in many applications and
products. That’s why a finding announced by Xiang-Feng Zhou and Artem R.
Oganov, Group of Theoretical Crystallography in the Department of Geosciences,
are so significant.
