Ultralong sheathed single-metal-atom chains synthesized under high pressure.
Single-metal-atom chains (SMACs) represent the ultimate limit of one-dimensional nanostructures.
Single-metal-atom chains (SMACs) represent the ultimate limit of one-dimensional nanostructures. They serve as archetypal model systems for condensed matter physics and constitute fundamental building blocks for next-generation nanoelectronics. However, synthesis of SMACs…
