English: Crystallite synthesized on the surface of monocrystalline silicon As a result of electrochemical etching with simultaneous electrochemical deposition in solutions of acids on the surface of silicon formed the island microrelief. Iron-containing islands have magnetic properties, which allows them to be considered for use as materials for isolation and purification of nucleic acids from complex mixtures, and silicon is a reliable substrate for such compounds. Nanoart ‘Free Bird’ symbolizes the free spirit of the Ukrainian people. The phenomenon of our courage, steadfastness, resilience and desire to win is being studied all over the world. We just know that Ukrainians are of Cossack descent. That is enough to understand everything. There have been times of captivity in our history, but the Ukrainian spirit, our desire for independence, has never been enslaved. We dedicate our new Nanoart to Ukraine's struggle for its independence and our future victory. Due to the inseparability of art and culture, we want to convey to the world the need to support our scientists, artists and all Ukrainians. Not everyone is at the front now, but each of us can work on our own battlefield where we are strong. We believe in our victory, but we need the support of the world community. The synthesis of nanostructures was carried out at the Berdyansk State Pedagogical University, the authors are Yana Suchikova (Yana Sychikova) and Serhii Kovachov. At the time of submission of the image for the competition, the city of Berdyansk is under occupation, and the university is captured by the russian invaders. The image was made within the project “Nanoart. New Symbolism of Science”. The project is implemented with the support of the Sustainability Fund for Ukrainian Artists of the Artists at Risk Connection program of PEN America
