5. 내 용 :
At the nanoscale, the behavior of materials can be significantly different from that at the macroscopic or microscopic scale. Recently, we revealed that single-crystalline nanowires of copper, gold and nickel can be pseudoelastic and possess a shape memory that was previously unknown. This behavior arises from a reversible crystallographic lattice reorientation process within the face-centered cubic (FCC) structure and is driven by surface stress and high surface-to-volume ratios of the nanowires. This shape memory effect exists over a wide range of temperature and is associated with response times on the order of nanoseconds, making the nanowires attractive functional components for a new generation of sensors, transducers, and interconnects in nano-electromechanical systems
(NEMS). In this talk, I will discuss our research that led to the discovery and characterization of this novel phenomenon.
