Abstract
Smart materials have an important role in modern applications. They have contributed to improving various applications in several fields. One of the areas most affected by the improvement of smart materials is nanostructures. These materials are created by basic techniques, such as arrangement manipulation. Significant efforts have been made to enhance smart materials so that they resemble natural materials in terms of accuracy, design, and utility. Here, a review of the latest research on smart materials that can alter the electrical properties of nanostructures is presented. The main objective of this review is to introduce the role of smart materials in controlling the electrical performance of nanostructures. Furthermore, this review proposes an analysis of the integration and cooperation of previous research, such as the use of a piezoelectric motor in the design of structural magnetic nanodevices to control these devices. Piezoelectric actuators can also be used to develop a new method for controlling PV modulators for fabricating a single-wall nanotube. This new proposal could alter the properties of many nanoscale systems serving several medical and engineering fields. Moreover, this review proposes a novel methodology for nanocoating by introducing an antireflective coating with multiple layers. This method can effectively enhance the functions of the nanoscale coating.
