"This book does an excellent job of
assembling a wide variety of synthetic techniques and describing how
they can be applied to a range of materials for design on the
nanoscale. The references range from the classic to the very recent,
giving a broad perspective of the area, and an index provides
cross-referencing." -- Journal of the American Chemical
Society
This is the 2nd edition of the original "Nanostructures and
Nanomaterials" written by Guozhong Cao and published by Imperial
College Press in 2004.
This important book focuses not only 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.
Contents:
- Fundamentals of Nanomaterials
- Zero-Dimensional Nanomaterials (Nanoparticles)
- One-Dimensional Nanomaterials (Nanowires,
Nanofibers, Nanotubes, Nanocables)
- Two-Dimensional Nanomaterials (Thin Films)
- Special Nanomaterials (e.g., Carbon Nanotubes)
- Synthesis, Properties, and Applications of
Nanomaterials
