Abstract:
Design, synthesis and controlled fabrication of functional nanoscale systeM.S. are of
paramount importance in chemistry, physics, biology, materials Science and
nanoscience.1-12 In this context, over the past two decades considerable efforts have been
devoted to develop extensive set of techniques and strategies for the production of
nanomaterials and nanostructures based on top-down and bottom-up approaches.13 The
field of nanotechnology is one among the recent developments and it describes the
evolution of various microscopy tools and techniques. Nanotechnolgoy enables the
advanced microfabrication and nanomanipulation, however suffer from lack of concepts
and methods needed for correctly architect these materials into viable applications.14
Moreover, in contrast to the macroscopic and microscopic regimes, the physical
phenomena occurring at the nanoscale operates quite differently which are highly affected
by several factors including thermal and statistical fluctuations, as well as mutual
interactions among the components.
