Inorganic and Metallic Nanotubular Materials: Recent Technologies and Applications (Topics in Applied Physics)

This book describes the synthesis, characterization and applications of inorganic and metallic nanotubular materials. It cover a wide variety of nanotubular materials excluding carbon nanotubes, ranging from metal oxides, sulfides and nitrides such as titanium oxide, tungsten sulfide, and boron nitride, as well as platinum and other noble-metals to unique nanotubes consisting of water, graphen or fulleren. Based on their structural and compositional characteristics, these nanotubular materials are of importance for their potential applications in electronic devices, photocatalysts, dye-sensitized solar cells, nanothermometer, electrodes for fuel cells and batteries, sensors, and reinforcing fillers for plastics, among others. Such materials are also having a great impact on future developments, including renewable energy sources as well as highly efficient energy-conversion and energy-saving technologies. This book will be of particular interest to graduate students in chemistry and physics as well as experts in the fields of nanotechnology, material science and inorganic and solid-state chemistry.

Low-Dimensional Solids (Inorganic Materials Series)

Low-Dimensional Solids (Inorganic Materials Series)

With physical properties that often may not be described by the transposition of physical laws from 3D space across to 2D or even 1D space, low-dimensional solids exhibit a high degree of anisotropy in the spatial distribution of their chemical bonds. This means that they can demonstrate new phenomena such as charge-density waves and can display nanoparticulate (0D), fibrous (1D) and lamellar (2D) morphologies.

Low-Dimensional Solids presents some of the most recent research into the synthesis and properties of these solids and covers:

• Metal Oxide Nanoparticles
• Inorganic Nanotubes and Nanowires
• Biomedical Applications of Layered Double Hydroxides
• Carbon Nanotubes and Related Structures
• Superconducting Borides

Introducing topics such as novel layered superconductors, inorganic-DNA delivery systems and the chemistry and physics of inorganic nanotubes and nanosheets, Low-Dimensional Solids discusses some of the most exciting concepts in this developing field.

Inorganic Nanowires: Applications, Properties, and Characterization (Nanomaterials and Their Applications)

Advances in nanofabrication, characterization tools, and the drive to commercialize nanotechnology products have contributed to the significant increase in research on inorganic nanowires (INWs). Yet few if any books provide the necessary comprehensive and coherent account of this important evolution.

Presenting essential information on both popular and emerging varieties, Inorganic Nanowires: Applications, Properties, and Characterization addresses the growth, characterization, and properties of nanowires. Authors Meyyappan—a NASA scientist and renowned leader in nanoscience and technology—and Sunkara—a major contributor to nanowire literature—offer an in-depth overview of various types of nanowires, including semiconducting, metallic, and oxide varieties. This book also includes extensive coverage of applications that use INWs and those with great potential in electronics, optoelectronics, field emission, thermoelectric devices, and sensors.

This invaluable reference:

• Traces the evolution of nanotechnology and classifies nanomaterials
• Describes nanowires and their potential applications to illustrate connectivity and continuity
• Discusses growth techniques, at both laboratory and commercial scales
• Evaluates the most important aspects of classical thermodynamics associated with the nucleation and growth of nanowires
• Details the development of silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, and other materials in the form of nanowires used in electronics applications
• Explores the physical, electronic and other properties of nanowires

The explosion of nanotechnology research activities for various applications is due in large part to the advances in the growth of nanowires. Continued development of novel nanostructured materials is essential to the success of so many economic sectors, ranging from computing and communications to transportation and medicine. This volume discusses how and why nanowires are ideal candidates to replace bulk and thin film materials.
