Open questions on the transition between nanoscale and bulk properties of metals
Rongchao Jin, Tatsuya Higaki
Abstract
Nanoscience has progressed tremendously in the exploration of new phenomena not seen in bulk materials, however, the transition between nanoscale and bulk properties is not yet fully understood. Here the authors identify and discuss remaining open questions that call for future efforts.
