Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary field and has achieved breakthroughs in bioengineering, molecular biology, diagnostics, and therapeutics. This book gathers research from around the globe in this dynamic field.

Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary field. It is the study of the control of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally nanotechnology deals with structures of the size 100 nanometers or smaller, and involves developing materials or devices within that size. This title gathers the research from around the globe in this field.

Nanotechnology is the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based upon molecular self-assembly. This book gathers and presents data on nanotechnology, including dynamical symmetries in nanophysics; tubular carbon nanostructures; nanotribology and biomaterials; germanium nanocrystals; particles as protein markers and nanowire chemical gas sensors.

Nanotechnology is the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale and is also very diverse, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based upon molecular self-assembly. This book gathers and presents data on nanotechnology, including the mechanochemical synthesis of oxide nanopowders; reactive nano-epoxy with carbon nanofibres for application as a composite matrix; effects of fullerene nanoparticles in the environment; applications of nanotechnology in the food processing industry; nanotechnology for tumour targeted delivery...

Nanotechnology is the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based on molecular self-assembly. This book gathers and presents data on nanotechnology, including fourier diffusion and special relativity in nanotechnology; ion-synthesis of silver nanoparticles; self-organised meso-structures in confined soft materials; synthesis, properties and applications of germanium nanocrystals; and, optical characterisation of nanoscale materials and structural transformation of CdS...
