Nanoparticle research is unlocking exciting advancements in energy, medicine, and electronics. A major challenge in this field is controlling how nanostructures are synthesized and grown. To address this, an international team of scientists, led by researchers from the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IFJ PAN) in Krakow, conducted a groundbreaking experiment.

They demonstrated the electrodeposition of a platinum-nickel (PtNi) nanolayer on an electrode. Using cutting-edge imaging techniques, the team observed the formation of structures at the atomic level in real time—a crucial step toward designing materials with precisely tailored properties.
