Surface Energy Effects

Surface Energy Effects is a thermodynamic phenomenon in nanomaterials characterized by the increased contribution of surface energy to the overall free energy of a system due to the high surface-to-volume ratio at the nanoscale, distinguishing it from bulk material behavior where surface effects are negligible.
