Introduction to nanoscience / Gabor L. Hornyak ... [et al.].

Contributor(s): Hornyak, Gabor L. (Gabor Louis)Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Publication details: Boca Raton : CRC Press, c2008. Description: xxxiv, 815 p. : ill. (chiefly col.) ; 27 cmISBN: 9781420048056 (alk. paper); 1420048058 (alk. paper)Subject(s): Nanostructures | Nanoscience | Nanostructured materials | NanotechnologyDDC classification: 620.5 LOC classification: QC176.8.N35 | I685 2008Online resources: Table of contents only | WorldCat details
Contents:
TOC Societal implications of nano -- Characterization methods -- Fabrication methods -- Materials, structure, and the nanosurface -- Energy at the nanoscale -- The material continuum -- Nanothermodynamics -- Carbon-based nanomaterials -- Chemical interactions at the nanoscale -- Supramolecular chemistry -- Chemical synthesis and modification of nanomaterials -- Natural nanomaterials -- Biomolecular nanoscience.
Summary: Summary: Tomorrow's nanoscientist will have a truly interdisciplinary and nano-centric education, rather than, for example, a degree in chemistry with a specialization in nanoscience. For this to happen, the field needs a truly focused and dedicated textbook. This full-color masterwork is such a textbook. It introduces the nanoscale along with the societal impacts of nanoscience, and then presents an overview of characterization and fabrication methods. The authors systematically discuss the chemistry, physics, and biology aspects of nanoscience, providing a complete picture of the challenges, opportunities, and inspirations posed by each facet before giving a brief glimpse at nanoscience in action: nanotechnology.
