Nanomaterials synthesis by a novel phenomenon: The nanoscale Rayleigh-Taylor instability

The Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) interfacial instability has been attributed to physical phenomenon in a wide variety of macroscopic systems, including black holes, laser generated plasmas, and thick fluids. However, evidence for its existence in the nanoscale is lacking. Here we first show theoretically th...
