Nano-sized Multifunctional Materials: Synthesis, Properties and Applications

Matters behave very differently at the nanoscale. Nano-sized Multifunctional Materials explores how materials can be down-scaled to nanometre-size in order to tailor and control their properties. These advanced, low-dimensional materials, ranging from quantum dots, nanoparticles, to ultra- thin films develop multifunctional properties. As well as demonstrating how down-scaling to nano-size can make materials multifunctional, the chapters then go on to show how this technology can be applied in electronics, medicine, energy, and environment. Nano-sized Multifunctional Materials provides a fresh approach in materials research that will be a valuable reference resource to materials scientists, materials engineers, chemists, physicists and bioengineers who want to learn more about how the special properties of nano-sized materials can be best be exploited. Outlines the major synthesis chemical process and problems of advanced nanomaterialsShows how multifunctional nanomaterials can be practically used in biomedical area, nanomedicine, and in the treatment of pollutantsDemonstrates how the properties of a variety of materials can be engineered by downscaling them to nano size INDICE: 1.
