In a period of accelerating technological innovation, interdisciplinary boundaries between materials science and biology, physics, and chemistry will provide fertile ground for establishing a new knowledge base for emerging nanotechnologies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile providing tremendous opportunities for scientific discoveries and technological innovation, this will also demand intensified efforts to develop new theories and modelling strategies for complex materials and systems. A large proportion of nanotechnology research output is focused on synthesis and characterization of materials. Considerable attention is paid to potential and primitive devices as well, chiefly for biomedical applications and nanoelectromechanical systems. The publication of this book is timely and provides guidance on the state of the art to the growing numbers of nanotechnology researchers, helping to shape the contours of both experimental research and theoretical research.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTOPICS COVERED INCLUDE\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eNanostructured thin films\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePhotonic band-gap structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eQuantum dots\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCarbon nanotubes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAtomistic techniques\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNanomechanics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNanofluids\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eQuantum information processing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis 'state-of-the-art' reference source for expert researchers will also be useful to help teach anyone new to the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAkhlesh Lakhtakia\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics at the Pennsylvania State University. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01 October 2004\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781860584589\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e488\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45985742520460,"sku":"9781860584589","price":192.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781860584589.jpg?v=1780179587","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781860584589","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
