Handbook of Nanoscience, Engineering, and Technology, Second Edition (The Electrical Engineering Handbook Series)
Handbook of Nanoscience, Engineering, and Technology, Second Edition (The Electrical Engineering Handbook Series)
Date: 26 April 2011, 01:51
The ability to study and manipulate matter at the nanoscale is the defining feature of 21st-century science. The first edition of the standard-setting Handbook ofNanoscience , Engineering, and Technology saw the field through its infancy. Reassembling the preeminent team of leading scientists and researchers from all areas ofnanoscience and nanotechnology along with several new pioneers, this second edition will guide the field through its burgeoning adolescence. The phenomenal growth and staggering variety of applications of nanotechnology prevent any reference from providing a complete picture of the field. Instead, this edition surveys the most important areas, the most promising technologies, and the fastest-growing developments of current interest. In particular, it discusses fundamental theory of molecular and nanoelectronics, advanced fabrication technologies, modeling and simulation results, and novel molecular and nanoelectronic devices. New chapters in theSecond Edition explore… · The story of how the National Nanotechnology Initiative was born, where it is now, and where it is going · Molecular computing and processing platforms · Spin field effect transistors · Moletronics and spintronics · Nanoarchitectonics · Molecular machines · Magnetic manipulation applications in biomedical science · Biological- and chemical-mediated self-assembly · Nanomanufacturing · Nanotextile technologies · Nanofluidics for cell biology · Carbon nanostructures and nanocomposites · Accelerated design tools for nanophotonic devices · Nanoparticles for drug delivery Remaining the definitive reference for nano researchers around the world, the Handbook ofNanoscience, Engineering, and Technology, Second Edition provides the signposts for blazers of the nano trail.
Review:
A Very Young Field
Is Nanotech just more hype? Blue sky research with no practical products in sight?
This book hopes to dispell that by presenting a solid survey of the field. It does require a fairly high technical level in the reader, concentrated in engineering. This may be a good sign. Things are not relegated to pure research. Indeed, several chapters discuss possible biotech and molecular electronics applications. Though you should be warned that these might be harder to build than expressed in the confident tone of some authors.
Some readers may see parallels to a description of the semiconductor industry circa 1955, when some devices had been built, but the full potential was only just being suspected. If so, perhaps all the more reason for you to go into nanotech, using this book as one of your guides.
