Description
by Asim K. Das, Mahua Das
The present book has been designed to cover the basic and fundamental aspects of nanoscience, nanomaterials and development of nanotechnology. The book has been prepared to meet the needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students of different disciplines like chemistry, physics, materials science, nanoscience, etc.
Highlights of the book
o Dimension of nanoregime
o Nanotechnology in the ancient days and nature
o Moore’s law
o Different types of nanomaterials – OD, 1D, 2D and 3D
o Bulk nanomaterials – nanocrystalline materials, nanocomposites, nanoporous material, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), inorganic-organic hybrid nanocomposites
o Quantum mechanics of low dimensional systems
o Quantum confinement
o Jellium model of metallic nanoclusters
o Electrical properties – ballistic transport, Coulomb blockade
o Magnetic nanoparticles and superparamagnetism
o Surface properties
o Mechanical properties – Hall-Petch strengthening
o Stabilisation – electrostatic (DLVO theory) and steric stabilisations
o Optical properties – fluorescent emission of quantum dots and surface plasmon resonance (SPR), spectra of metallic nanoparticles
o Core-shell nanoparticles and gold nanoshells
o Carbon nanoworld – fullerenes, graphenes and carbon nanotubes
o Synthesis of nanomaterials – vapour and solution phases
o Characterization of nanomaterials – SPM, STM, AFM, SEM, TEM, XRD
o Application of nanomaterials and nanotechnology
