Nanoparticles: From Theory to Application Hardcover - 2010

by SCHMID GUNTER


From the publisher

Die Verfgbarkeit von Nanopartikeln mit definierter Struktur und gewnschten Eigenschaften ist eine der wichtigsten Grundlagen der weiteren Entwicklung der Nanotechnologie. Das vorliegende, fr einen breiten Leserkreis konzipierte Buch beschreibt zunchst, wovon der Aufbau von Nanopartikeln abhngt (Clusterbildung, Phasenbergnge). Anschlie end werden Details der chemischen Synthese sowie der Messung elektrischer und magnetischer Merkmale behandelt. Vielfltige interessante Anwendungsbeispiele (unter anderem ultradichte Aufzeichnungsmaterialien, bioelektronische Bauelemente und Sensoren) runden den Band ab.

From the rear cover

A bestselling title in its second edition. An introduction to the science of nanoparticles, from fundamental principles to their use in novel applications. With its clear structure and comprehensive coverage, backed by numerous examples from the recent literature, this is a must-have reference for chemists and materials scientists working with and developing
nanoparticle systems. Reviews:
"Gunter Schmid, the Editor of 'Nanoparticles', is successful in securing the participation of prominent leading experts; he also excels in integrating the chapters in such a way that there is no disjointedness between the different topics which is a great advantage for the reader."
ChemPhysChem "...a homogeneous, integrated, well-crafted, and highly readable volume - I strongly recommend that instructors take a serious look at this text - it is also of extraordinary value as a resource for the established
researcher..."
Journal of the American Society "The book succeeds in conveying important developments in the field, as well as providing useful information for solving actual research problems... it is addressing practitioners in industry, as well as university libraries. I definitely recommend this text."
