Nanotechnology: Principles and Practices by Sulabha K. Kulkarni Pdf

Given the rapid advances in the field, this book offers an up-to-date introduction to nanomaterials and nanotechnology. Though condensed into a relatively small volume, it spans the whole range of multidisciplinary topics related to nanotechnology. Starting with the basic concepts of quantum mechanics and solid state physics, it presents both physical and chemical synthetic methods, as well as analytical techniques for studying nanostructures. The size-specific properties of nanomaterials, such as their thermal, mechanical, optical and magnetic characteristics, are discussed in detail. The book goes on to illustrate the various applications of nanomaterials in electronics, optoelectronics, cosmetics, energy, textiles and the medical field and discusses the environmental impact of these technologies. Many new areas, materials and effects are then introduced, including spintronics, soft lithography, metamaterials, the lotus effect, the Gecko effect and graphene. The book also explains the functional principles of essential techniques, such as scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning near field optical microscopy (SNOM), Raman spectroscopy and photoelectron microscopy. In closing, Chapter 14, ‘Practicals’, provides a helpful guide to setting up and conducting inexpensive nanotechnology experiments in teaching laboratories.

Principles of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology by M. A. Shah,Tokeer Ahmad Pdf

The first part of this book introduces the systematic development of materials and their long journey to nanodimensions and how nano has moved from the world of the future to the world of the present. It also emphasises how the unique properties of nanomaterials have motivated researchers to develop simpler and inexpensive techniques to produce nanostructures of technologically-important materials using both top down approaches which rely on continuous breaking up of the bulk matter and bottom up approaches which build the nanostructures by its constituent units. Both these approaches have been discussed in detail. Part Three of the book introduces the invention and development of sophisticated equipment for the characterization, measurement and manipulation of nanomaterials i.e., Atomic Force Microscope to study the nanomaterials down to atomic scale. The Fourth part describes the significant impact on almost all industries and all areas of society which will offer better built, longer lasting, cleaner, safer and smarter products for home, communication, medicine, transportation, agriculture and for industry in general.
