Advanced Materials

Advanced materials are engineered to exhibit novel properties that confer superior performance in comparison with conventional materials. The performance of advanced material is associated with toughness, hardness and durability that can be used for high technological applications such as semiconductors, biomaterials, smart materials or nanomaterials.

Advanced Materials: Production, Characterization and Multidisciplinary Applications is focused on novel approaches for production of graphene and other 2D materials along with characterization techniques, discussing a wide range of applications in multidisciplinary areas of science and engineering. It provides a guiding light in production, synthesis and characterization of advanced materials by implementing appropriate techniques. The book has a multidisciplinary approach covering applications in electronics (sensors), engineering, biotechnology, medical (for example, cancer treatment, drug delivery, cellular imaging), and biomedical (smart implants, drug delivery and DIY health testing kits) field. The authors cover the primary information of advanced material and other 2D materials related to their production or synthesis via various methods ranging from conventional to non-conventional methods such as lithography, photolithography (computer chips), electron beam lithography, etching, atomic layer deposition, chemical vapor deposition, hydrothermal process, electro spinning, etc along with some comparative investigations. It also covers a comparison study over current and future perspectives of advanced and other 2D materials.

The book is aimed at researchers, academics, and professionals who are interested in understanding the novel approaches for synthesis of advanced materials.
