Nanowires

In the present time nanotechnology is a huge interdisciplinary branch of science, which is connected with diffrent materials that are invisible for human eye. Recently, there are prepared a lot of nano objects which have completely different properties than their macroscopy equivalents, therefore it is important to get some information about their physical, chemical and physicochemical properties. Iron nanowires (abbrev. NW) and iron nanoparticles (abbrev. NP) belong to this kind of nanomaterials and they have been examined by SEM (abbrev. scanning electron microscope) and the results are presented on the pictures number 1 and 2 below.

In my research I am focus on the issues related to magnetic and electronic properties of nanomaterials mentioned above. Examples of magnetization experiments made by VSM (abbrev. vibrating sample magnetometer) magnetmeter are presented on the picture number 3 below.*
