SOFT MATTER AND BIOMATERIALS ON THE NANOSCALE: THE WSPC REFERENCE ON FUNCTIONAL NANOMATERIALS - PART I (IN 4 VOLUMES) (World Scientific Nanoscience and Nanotechnology)

Functional nanomaterials are the basis of newly emerging nanotechnologies for various device applications. Numerous research has been done on nanomaterials with many kinds of morphologies and compositions. These nanomaterials display various kinds of functionality in areas such as electronic structure, optical effects, spin dynamics, and gas sensing. Because of advanced characterization and new fabrication techniques, nanomaterials are now central to multiple disciplines, including materials science, chemistry, physics, engineering and medicine. This major reference work presents a detailed overview of recent research developments on functional nanomaterials, and will be divided into four volumes: Vol 1: Nanomedicine; Vol 2: Soft Matter Interfaces; Vol 3: Bio-Inspired Nanomaterials; Vol 4: Soft Matter on the Nanoscale: Nano-structured Polymers and Their Applications.
