Nano-topology optimization for materials design with atom-by-atom control

C. Chen, D. C. Chrzan, et al.

Discover the groundbreaking "Nano-Topology Optimization (Nano-TO)" method developed by Chun-Teh Chen, Daryl C. Chrzan, and Grace X. Gu, enabling the design of nanostructured materials with unparalleled elastic properties. This innovative approach outperforms existing TPMS structures and the Hashin-Shtrikman upper bound, paving the way for novel materials without predetermined designs.

Abstract
This study proposes a novel method called "Nano-Topology Optimization (Nano-TO)" for designing nanostructured materials with atom-by-atom control. Applying Nano-TO to maximize elastic properties, the researchers designed nanomaterials exceeding the performance of gyroid and other triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures, even surpassing the Hashin-Shtrikman (HS) upper bound. This platform allows for computer-aided design of novel materials without pre-determined designs.
