Nanoscience, Nanomanufacturing, and Nanoelectronics

Nanotechnology is the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale and is also very diverse, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based upon molecular self-assembly, from developing new materials with dimensions on the nanoscale to investigating whether we can directly control matter on the atomic scale. This book discusses nanostructures and their properties which are critical to understanding and developing innovations in biological systems, therapeutic agents, and medicine and health.
