THE CURRENT STATUS OF BULK NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS

Terence G. Langdon

Abstract

Although the science of bulk nanostructured materials (BNM) has a relatively short history, extending through only about the last two decades, these materials are becoming of increasing importance in modern Materials Science. By analyzing data from four major scientific journals, it is shown that papers on BNM and associated topics represent almost 50% of the all-time top ten most cited publications.
