Nanoscience and technology is a rapidly developing area of research in physics, chemistry, and materials. This volume comsists of papers presented at the Advanced Study Institute in Hong Kong that explore developments in novel structures in phenomena of nanostructured materials. The topics include: two-dimensional nanoclusters on metal surfaces, quantum dynamics of coupled quantum-dot cubits and dephasing effects induced by measurements, coating of metal oxides onto surface of mesoporous silicas, and synthesis of boron nitride nanotube arrays Nano Science and...

Nanotechnology is the result of the continuing technological trend toward device miniaturization and the characterization, manipulation, and fine control of structure and function at diminishing length scales. A large class of nanoscale materials can be stable even though they are far from the lowest-energy thermodynamic state, and many possess novel properties unattainable in bulk. These trends are supported by the increasing sophistication of characterization and fabrication tools such as the scanning tunneling microscope and the transmission electron microscope, which allow the...
