Electrodeposition is to date the most economical and convenient path to the production of multilayered nanostructures. The contracts thus obtained can and do provide useful paradigms for fundamental studies (14) as well as for a plethora of useful applications. Some of the applications are in the arena of magnetically operated read/write elements others are in the field of electronic switches, to name only a few.

The investigated samples are thin film multilayer nanostructures [3-6]. Each structure unit is a nanolayer wdth a locally distributed nanociystal array inside it. The geometry of the nanostructures can be tuned by controlling the thicknesses and the arranging of the sensitizing and complementary, buffer or matrice, components. Every nanolayer can be designed as one material, as composition of nanocrystals, of clusters of two materials [3-5].

Si L XANES of multilayer nanostructures, grown on c-Si <100> substrates are presented in Fig. 2. In this series we have investigate multilayer nanostructures of two groups. The first group samples contain Er doped epitaxial layers of Si obtained by sublimation molecular-beam epitaxy. The second group samples contain layers with Ge quantum dots which were produced by sublimation epitaxy in GeH4. All the investigated structures with quantum dots were capped by thin silicon layers of about 50 nm.

We have analyzed a possible influence of the vortex lattice nascent process on the resistive characteristics of superconducting multilayered nanostructures with different geometrical symmetry. In order to achieve the temperature dependences of both the parallel and the perpendicular critical magnetic fields, we have considered...

As demonstrated by Heath et al., application of the LB technique in conjunction with semiconductor nanoparticies may lead to the generation of tunnel diodes [60]. These devices consist of a monolayer of 3.8 nm CdSe nanocrystals and an insulating bilayer of eicosanoic acid, sandwiched between an Au and an Al electrode. Advanced spectroscopic techniques such as attenuated low-energy photoelectron spectroscopy were also applied to LB-derived multilayered nanostructured assemblies of differently sized CdS particles [61]. Recent examples of applications of the LB technique... 

Research and development on thermal spray processing and chemistry-based techniques for deposing multilayered nanostructured coatings, processing of nanoscale powders into bulk structures and coatings has been undertaken. 

Since the initial report by Chou et al, a number of other research groups have explored variations of RNIL. For example, Makela et have reported the development of continuous two-sided R2RNIL, Nagato et al. have reported the iterative R2RNIL of multilayered nanostructures, and Seo et al have explored the use of a rigid-flex mold in R2RNIL. 

TEM micrographs of typical starch-MMT and starch-BOE composites are presented in Figure 6. The TEM results corresponded well with the XRD patterns. Starch-MMT composites exhibited a multilayered nanostructure (Figure 6-a), whereas starch-BOE composites showed almost no intercalated morphology, but instead had particle agglomerates or tactoids (appearing as dark spots in Figure 6-b).
