Reflecting the breadth of the field from research to manufacturing, Nanoscience and Nanoengineering: Advances and Applications delivers an in-depth survey of emerging, high-impact nanotechnologies. Written by a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers and edited by prestigious faculty of the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, this book focuses on important breakthroughs in nanoelectronics, nanobiology, nanomedicine, nanomodeling, nanolithography, nanofabrication, and nanosafety. This authoritative text:

  • Addresses concerns regarding the use of nanomaterials
  • Discusses the advantages of nanocomposites versus conventional materials
  • Explores self-assembly and its potential for nanomanufacturing applications
  • Covers compound semiconductors and their applications in communications
  • Considers display technology and infrared optics in relation to nanoelectronics
  • Explains how computational nanotechnology is critical to the design of process materials and nanobiotechnologies
  • Describes the design and fabrication of nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and their applications in nanomedicine

By seamlessly integrating interdisciplinary foundational science with state-of-the-art engineering tools, Nanoscience and Nanoengineering: Advances and Applications offers a holistic approach to understanding the mechanisms underpinning the nanotechnology-based products we enjoy today, as well as those that will change our society in the near future.

Industry Reviews

"This book is a wonderful balance between nanoscience and nanoengineering. It is very useful, especially for researchers and graduate students, to understand cross-cutting potential in developing nanotechnology applications. ... This is a timely...book on this subject. It is written by a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers. ... There are very few academic programs exclusively dedicated to nanoscience and nanoengineering. Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering is one such dedicated program. Most of the authors have an affiliation with this school. This brings reliability and authenticity to the book."
-Dr. Jitendra S. Tate, Ingram School of Engineering, Texas State University, San Marcos, USA

"... presents the state-of-art technological and scientific advances in the field of nanotechnology covering a range of topics-nanoelectronics, nanobio, nanomedicine, modeling at nanolevel, engineering nanomaterials, and nanotoxicology-that are representative areas in which significant advances in nanotechnology have been made in recent years. It will be useful for students and researchers to learn about a variety of fields of research in nanotechnology."
-Mahesh Hosur, Tuskegee University, Alabama, USA

"... a comprehensive encyclopedic monograph of the achievements of the research in nanotechnology oriented towards the application in medicine and biomedical engineering. ... The monograph was written by a collective of competent specialists and would be very useful for readers with wide-ranging scientific interests as well as for the organizers of clinics and enterprises producing medical equipment and drugs."
-Nguyen Van Hieu, Editor-in-Chief, Advances in Natural Sciences: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, Vietnam

"Using authors that span materials and biological science, this book succeeds in covering the full spectrum of nanomaterial topics in 15 chapters. To achieve this, a major emphasis is placed on bio-nanoscience, nanomanufacturing, and the associated nano-safety concerns. ... Experienced researchers in the nanoscience and nanoengineering field will find this book a useful survey of some of the sub-fields."
-James R. McBride, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, USA, from the Journal of Cluster Science (2015) 26:1023-1025
