    Superelasticity and shape memory down to the nanometer scale are successfully demonstrated in micro‐ and nanometer‐scale pillars of a Cu‐Al‐Ni shape memory alloy. Microcompression tests show superelastic behavior with recoverable strains above 5 % during more than 100 cycles. In addition, shape memory behavior with complete shape recovery at both the micro‐ and nanometer scales is also observed, opening the door to a new generation of smart micro and nano devices.
