Nanoplate
Two larger dimensions different from each other
Nanostructured material
Material having internal nanostructure / surface nanostructure
Nanostructure
Having internal / surface structure in nanoscale
Nanophase
Physicall / chemically distinct region in material which having one, two or three dimensions in nanoscale
Nanopore
Cavity with at least one dimension in nanoscale which contain gas / liquid
Nanodispersion
