Colloquium: Reactive plasmas as a versatile nanofabrication tool
TL;DR: In this article, the benefits and challenges of using plasma-based systems in nanofabrication of nanostructured silicon films, low-dimensional semiconducting quantum structures, ordered carbon nanotip arrays, highly crystalline ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}$ coatings, and nano-structured hydroxyapatite bioceramics are discussed.

Size dependent interface energy and its applications
TL;DR: In this article, the classic thermodynamics as a powerful traditional theoretical tool is used to model different bulk interface energies and the corresponding size dependences, which is induced by size dependence of coherent energy of atoms within nanocrystals.

Morphology of crystals
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model for the systematic construction of R(n,A) functions by a sequence of assembling steps, based on a model of the crystal surface as a branch of soliton physics.

Thermodynamics of metastable phase nucleation at the nanoscale
C.X. Wang,Guowei Yang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a universal thermodynamic approach on nanoscale to elucidate the formation of the metastable phases taking place in the micro-phase growth, which was used to study the theory of nucleation and growth of diamond nanowires inside diamond nanotubes.
