Abstract
Nanostructured non-stoichiometric non-equilibrium materials are disclosed. Novel electromagnetic materials and their applications are discussed. More specifically, the specifications teach the use of nanotechnology and nanostructured materials for developing novel electrical devices and products.
Claims4
A method of modifying the performance of an electrical device comprising:
- providing a device prepared from stoichiometric nanostructured material;
- converting the stoichiometric nanostructured material into a non-stoichiometric non-equilibrium nanostructured material wherein the act of converting is accomplished by heat treatment of the device in an atmosphere selected from the group consisting of:
- reducing, oxidizing, nitriding, boronizing, carburizing, and halogenating.
