Promises and problems of mesoscale materials chemistry or why meso?
Manipulation and control of chemical structures on the mesoscale has recently developed to a very promising and also aesthetically appealing area of chemistry. This concept article tries to integrate the views of two experts to delineate the specific principles, approaches, and the novel opportunities for chemistry that arise from the rational control of matter and functionality on that scale.
