Frontiers of Multifunctional Nanosystems (NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry)

General routes to the development of innovative, multi functional nanosystems are described by experts in the field. The systems described are based on fullerenes, nanotubes, metals (Au, Ag, Pt, etc.) and semiconductors (Si, CdS, CdTe, metal oxides), nanocrystals and polymer / biopolymer assembly systems. The book also discusses the realization and characterization of the fundamental properties of nanosystems, defined by nano-size effects, as well as the application of such systems in electronics, optics, magnetoelectronics, spintronics, biomedicine, pharmaceutical biocomplexes, and biosensors.

Molecular Engineering of Nanosystems

Recent advances in scanning-probe technology, in optical technology (optical “tweezers”), and in solution-phase chemistry now enable us to manipulate individual atoms and molecules. It is thus becoming possible not only to build machines at the scale of integrated electronic circuits and circuits with “wires” no thicker than an atom, but also to manipulate biological tissues and materials at the scale of individual cells, organelles, and even molecules. The implications of this technology are profound: for computer technology, for electromechanical sensors and actuators, for materials science and manufacturing, and for biomedical engineering.||The molecular machines of living organisms provide the paradigm for the discussion in this text. It thus emphasizes chemical physics, particularly solution-phase chemistry, as a basis for understanding the assembly of molecular machines. In addition, the book discusses the proximity-probe methods and bioengineering associated with understanding and designing devices at nanometer scales.||”Molecular Nantechnology ” will be of interest to physicists, chemists, materials scientists, biological physicists, computer scientists, and manufacturing engineers.

||From the reviews:||”[Provides] an intuitive, scientific framework for understanding nanoscale systems . . . Rietman had organized the book around his precept that ‘solution-phase chemistry and protein engineering will bootstrap us into the first phase of nanotechnology.’ . . . Useful for those who might need a basic introduction to some of the important issues in nanotechnology and the influence of the chemical and biological science on the nanotechnology revolution . . . Those seeking a qualitative picture of nanoscale systems engineering will find it a useful reference.”|-Physics Today

PHYSICS TODAY “…the choice of topics and the order of their presentation appear to be well thought out…the book should be useful to those who might need a basic introduction to some of the important issues in nanotechnology and the influences of the chemical and biological sciences on the nanotechnology revolution…Those seeking a qualitative picture of nanoscale systems engineering will find MOLECULAR ENGINEERING OF NANOSYSTEMS a useful reference.”

Nanosystems use new, nanoscopic electrical and/or mechanical devices which, as constituents of electronic and electromechanical systems, find application primarily in computing, embedded control and biomedical data acquisition. In particular, this book will deal with the characterization and patterning of these materials from an engineering perspective, with the objective of creating operational prototypes and products.

The book will integrate various nano technologies on materials, devices and systems and identify key areas and results. The book will describe different design aspects for integrated systems on silicon, as well as on heterogeneous platforms including, but not limited to, electrical, optical, micromechanical and biological components in various forms and mixtures. By associating research topics from differing horizons, the book will provide a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between electronics/electrical engineering and materials science. The book will include topics at the intersection of these disciplines, and will interface with computer science, biology and medicine.
