nanocrystaln.

Brit.

/ˈnanə(ʊ)ˌkrɪstl/, U.S.

/ˈnænoʊˌkrɪstl/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: nano- comb. form, crystal n.

Etymology: < nano- comb. form + crystal n. Compare nanocrystalline adj.

Materials Science.

A crystal with dimensions of a few nanometres. Also: a polycrystal in which the individual crystallites are of this size (often with a significant proportion of the atoms lying within disordered grain-boundary regions).

1984 Physics Lett. A. 102 365/1 It is proposed to synthesize gas-like solids by compacting pre-generated randomly oriented crystals with sizes d below 10nm (‘nanocrystals’).

1988 Nature 10 Mar. 112/2 One such approach..depends on the creation of what is virtually a new state of matter, intermediate between a polycrystal and a glass—the ‘nanocrystal’.

1992 Personal Computer World Nov. 415/3 Quantum computers were proposed before anyone was able to realistically consider fabricating usable semiconducting nanocrystals to order.

2000 N.Y. Times 7 Dec. g11/2 His group zapped a wafer laced with nanocrystals with an intense blue laser.
