Summary
Unveiling the Nanoworld: A Journey into the Infinitesimal
Nanomaterials have been present for centuries, but only recently have we begun to understand how their properties, like color, are directly linked to their size, unlocking a new era of scientific exploration.
By manipulating nanocrystal size, chemists, physicists, and theorists are collaborating to uncover the unique and often surprising characteristics of nanomaterials. These properties depend on size, shape, and the…

About The Author
Marie Paule Pileni
Marie Paule Pileni is a pioneering force in nanotechnology, renowned for her groundbreaking and multidisciplinary research that has opened new frontiers in science. Her work focuses on nanocrystal self-assemblies into unique crystalline structures, revealing distinctive chemical and physical properties influenced by crystalline order, all while maintaining the intrinsic properties of the individual nanocrystals. In a recent breakthrough, Pileni demonstrated that these assemblies can form within tumours and persist even beyond cell death - a discovery patented in 2021, with promising implications for biomedicine. Pileni has authored over 450 scientific publications and holds the title of Grand Officer of the Legion of Honor.
