Q: What makes nanostructuredmaterials (scientifically) interesting?• Electronic & optical properties
– Nanowires and nanotubes are the most confining electricalconductors - puts the squeeze on electrons
– Can be defect free - electrons move “ballistically”– Quantum confinement - tunable optical properties
• Mechanical properties– Small enough to be defect-free, thus exhibiting ideal strength
• Thermal properties– Can be designed to conduct heat substantially better (or
much worse) than nearly every bulk material• Chemical properties
– Dominated by large surface-to-volume ratio
Nanowires and Nanotubes are New Materials!

do not interact strongly with electrons in other atoms• Valence shell electrons are the outer electrons that
contribute to bonds between atoms

Electrons in solids• If all the bonds are “satisfied”, but the bonds are relatively
weak, then the material is an intrinsic semiconductor, andthermal energy can break a small number of bonds, releasingthe electrons to conduct electricity

Electrons in nanostructured materials
• Electrons can be considered to be both wavesand particles
• Particle: momentum = mass x velocity (p =mv)
• Wave: momentum = Planck’sconstant/wavelength (p = h/λ
• Particle or wave: kinetic energy = p2/2m

Electrons in nanostructured materials• Each wave (“wavefunction”) is analogous to the shape of a
vibrating string (or jump rope).• If we hold two ends of the string, we constrain the string to
vibrate within an “envelope” that contains an integer number ofhalf wavelengths…a “standing wave”.
• Each half-wavelength exists between two “nodes” - points thatdo not move
• The shorter the wavelength (shorter string or more nodes), themore energy it takes to vibrate the string

From vibrating strings to electrons
• An electron’s wavefunction is just like the vibratingstring
• If we move the nodes closer together, the electron’senergy increases.
• If we put an electron in a “box”, the walls of the boxbecome nodes - so the smaller the box, the higherthe energy of the electron
Confining the electrons fundamentally changestheir electronic structure…
Quantum confining materials are NEW materialswith properties that are tunable with size

18
Optical properties• Decreasing the size of a nanostructured
material increases the energy difference, ΔE,between allowed electron energy levels
• When an electron drops from a higherenergy state to a lower energy state, aquantum of light (“photon”) with wavelength, λ= hc/ΔE may be emitted
• Larger ΔE implies shorter wavelength (“blueshifted”)
h is Planck’s constant; c is the speed of light

…but what is the wavefunction?• Unlike the case of the vibrating
string (or jump rope), the electron’swavefunction is a mathematicalabstraction that is not tangible
• The square of the wavefunction,however, represents the probabilitydistribution describing the likelihoodof finding the electron at aparticular location
• Multiplying the square of thewavefunction by the charge on anelectron, we have the chargedistribution

How does quantum confinementwork in a nanowire?
• If a nanowire’s diameter is comparable to thetypical wavelength of a conduction electronin the bulk material, then the nanowirebecomes a “quantum wire”, and the electronsare squeezed in two dimensions, but canmove freely in the third

How are nanostructured materials made?
• Key challenge: high surface-to-volume ratio• Surface contributes excess surface free
energy per unit area• Lowest free energy state for a material with a
cubic crystal structure is a single facetedspheroid
• Must exploit kinetics (rates of reactions atsurfaces) to make small structures and/orstructures with very large aspect ratios

Conclusions
• Quantum dots, nanowires and nanotubes arenew materials with properties that can bemarkedly different than those of bulkmaterials or thin films
• …A new frontier for materials science andmaterials engineering!
