Nanostructures and Nanomaterials FROM THE PUBLISHER
This important book focuses on the synthesis and fabrication of nanostructures and nanomaterials, but also includes properties and applications of nanostructures and nanomaterials, particularly inorganic nanomaterials. It provides balanced and comprehensive coverage of the fundamentals and processing techniques with regard to synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications of nanostructures and nanomaterials. Both chemical processing and lithographic techniques are presented in a systematic and coherent manner for the synthesis and fabrication of 0-D, 1-D, and 2-D nanostructures, as well as special nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and ordered mesoporous oxides. The book will serve as a general introduction to nanomaterials and nanotechnology for teaching and self-study purposes.
SYNOPSIS
A textbook for upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and professional short courses introducing nanotechnology. It discusses such aspects as the physical chemistry of solid surfaces; nanostructures with dimensions of zero (particles), one (wires and rods), and two (films); special nanomaterials; characterization and properties; and applications.
