Opis

Offers an introduction to nanomaterials, from how to make them to example properties, processing techniques, and applications. This work offers coverage ranging from isolated clusters and small particles to nanostructured materials and multilayers. It deals with relevant aspects of the underlying physics, materials science, and physical chemistry.

Recenzje

"… this is a most valuable compilation, with something for everybody … It will be quite some time before this book is displaced from its unique eminence as an overview of nano-everything."
-Nanostructured Materials

"The broad objective of this book is to indicate the breadth and current status of the area of nanomaterials research and, in particular, to provide access to most of the basic material on the synthesis, properties, and applications of nanomaterials. The book is intended for graduate students and researchers in other fields who seek an extensive review of this subject, as well as researchers currently working in nanomaterials … those parts with which I am familiar are authoritative and presented with clarity. The book is handsomely illustrated with many figures and the occasional micrograph … There is … no other book with such a broad coverage of nanomaterials and this text is to be welcomed for those who wish to enter the field or who are already involved in one of its many aspects. I recommend this book strongly."
-Chemistry and Industry

"… successfully accomplishes the difficult task of reviewing all salient aspects of nanomaterials science and technology … valuable information on the technological and economical assessment of materials … essential to all materials scientists and materials science libraries…"
