ABC - DEF - GHI - JKL - MNO - PQRS - TUV - WXYZ Bottom-up vs Top-down (in the context of nanoparticle formation)
Definition:
There are two approaches for the manufacturing of nanomaterials:
- The “top-down” approach, which involves the breaking down of large
pieces of material to generate the required nanostructures from them.
- The “bottom-up” approach, which implies assembling single atoms and
molecules into larger nanostructures.
