For solids and liquids this is typically a few to ten nanometers, and involves averaging over a few thousand atoms or molecules. Hence the mesoscopic scale is roughly identical to the nanoscopic or nanotechnology scale for most solids. 2, record 1, English, - mesoscopic%20scale

Entre l'échelle atomique et l'échelle macroscopique de l'agrégat polycristallin se trouve l'échelle mésoscopique. Il s'agit de l'échelle de la sous-structure des dislocations. [...] L'échelle mésoscopique est [...] fondamentale car c'est là que les mécanismes microscopiques se combinent pour déterminer les propriétés mécaniques des matériaux. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9chelle%20m%C3%A9soscopique

La escala mesoscópica tiene longitudes típicas que van desde decenas de nm [nanómetros] hasta algunos µm [micrómetros], y es aquella en la que los electrones de un semiconductor o un metal ponen de manifiesto su naturaleza cuántica cuando son enfriados a temperaturas que no superan los 5K [Kelvin]. 3, record 1, Spanish, - escala%20mesosc%C3%B3pica
