Nanostructures & nanomaterials synthesis, properties & applications - Cao, Guozhong (Imperial College Press, 2004)
Includes bibliographical references and index
Physical chemistry of solid surfaces -- Zero-dimensional nanostructures: nanoparticles -- One-dimensional nanostructures: nanowires and nanorods -- Two-dimensional nanostructures: thin films -- Special nanomaterials -- nanostructures fabricated by physical techniques -- Characterization and properties of nanomaterials -- Applications of nanomaterials
This important book focuses on the synthesis and fabrication of nanostructures and nanomaterials, but also includes properties and applications of nanostructures and nanomaterials, particularly inorganic nanomaterials. It provides balanced and comprehensive coverage of the fundamentals and processing techniques with regard to synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications of nanostructures and nanomaterials. Both chemical processing and lithographic techniques are presented in a systematic and coherent manner for the synthesis and fabrication of 0-D, 1-D, and 2-D nanostructures, as well as special nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and ordered mesoporous oxides. The book will serve as a general introduction to nanomaterials and nanotechnology for teaching and self-study purposes
