By studying how materials build themselves and by mimicking those processes, it is possible to create materials with new structures and properties. This is what Wallenberg Scholar Kimberly Dick Thelander, professor of materials science at Lund University, is doing. At the nano scale, which is measured in billionths of a meter, phenomena occur that do not otherwise exist. Thelander and her colleagu
