Bottom-up vs Top-down (in the context of nanoparticle formation)

There are two approaches for the manufacturing of nanomaterials: * The "top-down" approach, which involves the breaking down of large pieces of material to generate the required nanostructures from them. * The “bottom-up� approach, which implies assembling single atoms and molecules into larger nanostructures.
