Description

Market_Desc: · Technologists in the electronics, chemistry and pharmaceuticals industries among others· Business managers in the electronics, chemistry and pharmaceuticals industries among others· Students, both seniors and graduate students in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemistry, biology and physics Special Features: · Nanotechnology may well rival the development of the transistor or telecommunications in its ultimate impact. -- Charles M. Vest, President, Massachusetts Institute of Technology· Nanotechnology has given us the tools. . .to play with the ultimate toy box of nature -- atoms and molecules. Everything is made from it. . . .The possibilities to create new things appear limitless. . . -- Horst Stormer, Nobel Laureate, Columbia University, Lucent Technologies· Provides a broad coverage of nanotechnology and its applications, with an eye toward giving researchers in different areas an appreciation of nanotechnological developments outside their own fields of expertise.· Uses representative examples of research in many fields to focus on the diversity of nanotechnology applications.· Includes coverage of Carbon nanostructures; Organic compounds and polymers; Bulk nanostructured materials Self-assembly; Nanostructured ferromagnetism Catalysis; Optical and vibrational spectroscopy; Biological materials; Quantum wells, wires, and dots; Nano machines and devices· Ideal for chemists, physicists, biologists, and engineers interested in this new technology About The Book: Nanotechnology has become one of the most important and exciting fields in the forefront of Engineering, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. It shows great promise for providing us in the near future with many breakthroughs that will change the direction of technological advances in a wide range of applications. The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to the subject of nanotechnology on a level that allows researchers in different areas to obtain an appreciation of developments in nanotechnology outside their own fields of expertise, and that will allow technical administrators and managers to obtain an overview of the subject. In addition, the book is suitable for introductory surveys of the field on the graduate level. This volume provides an introduction to the various areas of this field using representative examples of research results to illustrate important features of each individual area of investigation.
