Functional Nanomaterials and their Applications

Functional Nanomaterials and their Applications

Description:

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
Functional nanomaterials are the basis of newly emerging nanotechnologies for various device applications. Nanomaterials with many kinds of morphologies and compositions have been extensively investigated, and 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 special volume presents a detailed overview of recent research developments on functional nanomaterials, including synthesis, characterization, and applications.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: Six of the nine chapters in this collection are review articles summarizing advances in the synthesis and characterization of metal and semiconductor nanowires, inorganic/organic hybrid nanocomposites, dilute magnetic semiconductors, gas sensors, and nanoflowers. The three research papers investigate the photoluminescence and electroluminescence of copper-doped zinc sulphide nanocrystals, the effect of magnetic field on the growth of aligned carbon nanotubes, and the antibacterial activity of gold and silver nanoparticles grown from red algae. B&w photographs are provided.
