US Patent Issued to WUHAN UNIVERSITY on Feb. 18 for "Method for laser-induced growth of nano-units to form oriented, chiral, and complex structures" (Chinese Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 19 -- United States Patent no. 12,226,834, issued on Feb. 18, was assigned to WUHAN UNIVERSITY (Wuhan, China).

"Method for laser-induced growth of nano-units to form oriented, chiral, and complex structures" was invented by Tao Ding (Wuhan, China) and Xiaolin Lu (Wuhan, China).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A method for laser-induced growth of nano-units to form oriented, chiral, and complex structures is provided. Through a laser-induced photochemical reaction, a metal precursor undergoes photolysis to produce inorganic nanoparticles, and these nanoparticles are orientally deposited on a substrate along a polarization direction in a linearly polarized laser to form fusif...
