Product Description
Journal scope

The journal publishes papers at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology and especially those of an interdisciplinary nature. Here, nanotechnology is taken to include the ability to individually address, control, and modify structures, materials and devices with nanometre precision, and the synthesis of such structures into systems of micro- and macroscopic dimensions such as MEMS based devices. It encompasses the understanding of the fundamental physics, chemistry, biology and technology of nanometre-scale objects and how such objects can be used in the areas of computation, sensors, nanostructured materials and nano-biotechnology.
Article types
Research papers. Reports of original research work; not normally more than 8500 words (10 journal pages).

Topical reviews. Review articles commissioned by the Editorial Board.

Tutorials. Personal viewpoint and insight into a particular subject area appealing to a wider audience, including undergraduates and researchers working in any of the various fields of nanotechnology. Tutorials are normally commissioned by the Editorial Board but we also welcome unsolicited submissions to the journal.

The sensing section covers a diverse range of detection methods sensitive to the nanoscale and able to enhance and convey information onto a macroscopic level. Techniques encompass many subject areas including physical and mechanical sensing (electrostatic forces, strain, Youngs modulus, etc) as well as chemical and biological detection of, for example, humidity, ammonia and glucose levels.Materials: properties, characterization, modelling or tools
Section Editor: Mervyn Miles, University of Bristol

Basics of Nanotechnology

Product Description
This extended and revised edition of the successful German version is a clearly structured and easily readable introduction, written by an experienced author with sound knowledge of experimental synthesis and analysis of nanostructures.
Developed from courses on nanophysics and nanotechnology, this textbook covers the fundamental physics of nanostructures, methods of growth and manipulation, characterization methods with a focus on optical analyzing methods and nanooptics, a discussion of nano-architectures and the latest applications in optics, electronics, quantum computers, molecular nanostructures, biology and soft matter. This edition also includes an expanded discussion of quantum and classical effects as well as magnetic nanostructures.
With its wide range of problems to test the reader’s understanding, it is primarily aimed at graduate students with a basic knowledge of solid state physics, but can be equally used as a reference for professionals in physics, chemistry and materials science working on nanosystems, soft matter or biophysical matters.
