Publisher Description:

Reflecting the breadth of the field from research to manufacturing, Nanoscience and Nanoengineering: Advances and Applications delivers an in-depth survey of emerging, high-impact nanotechnologies. Written by a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers and edited by prestigious faculty of the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, this book focuses on important breakthroughs in nanoelectronics, nanobiology, nanomedicine, nanomodeling, nanolithography, nanofabrication, and nanosafety. This authoritative text:

  • Addresses concerns regarding the use of nanomaterials
  • Discusses the advantages of nanocomposites versus conventional materials
  • Explores self-assembly and its potential for nanomanufacturing applications
  • Covers compound semiconductors and their applications in communications
  • Considers display technology and infrared optics in relation to nanoelectronics
  • Explains how computational nanotechnology is critical to the design of process materials and nanobiotechnologies
  • Describes the design and fabrication of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and their applications in nanomedicine

By seamlessly integrating interdisciplinary foundational science with state-of-the-art engineering tools, Nanoscience and Nanoengineering: Advances and Applications offers a holistic approach to understanding the mechanisms underpinning the nanotechnology-based products we enjoy today, as well as those that will change our society in the near future.
