Research Findings from Zhejiang University Update Understanding of Nanoparticles (Continuous 1D single crystal growth with high aspect ratio by oriented aggregation of dendrite).

Researchers at Zhejiang University have made significant advancements in crystal growth with nanoparticles, achieving continuous 1D growth with high aspect ratios through oriented aggregation of dendrites. This innovative approach allows for the creation of mono-crystalline dendrite branches with ultra-high aspect ratios and uniform characteristics. The findings suggest potential applications for high aspect ratio nanowires and offer insights into general 1D crystal growth systems. The study was published in Communications Materials by Nature Portfolio, and more information can be obtained from the lead author, Quan Wan, at Zhejiang University. [Extracted from the article]
