Applied Scanning Probe Methods: Volumes I – XIII

Product Description

Originally published as seperate volumes this series is now available as a full set: a savings of over 40%. 

Examining the physical and technical foundation for recent progress with this technique, Applied Scanning Probe Methods offers a timely and comprehensive overview of SPM applications, now that industrial applications span topographic and dynamical surface studies of thin-film semiconductors, polymers, paper, ceramics, and magnetic and biological materials. First it lays the theoretical background of static and dynamic force microscopies, including sensor technology and tip characterization, contributions detail applications such as macro- and nanotribology, polymer surfaces, and roughness investigations. The final part on industrial research addresses special applications of scanning force nanoprobes such as atomic manipulation and surface modification, as well as single electron devices based on SPM.

With this field progressing so fast, the volumes of this series comprise the state of the art of and the progress in the development of the SPM techniques itself, characterization methods as well as biomimetics and industrial application areas.

Applied Scanning Probe Methods X: Biomimetics and Industrial Applications

Product Description

The volumes VIII, IX and X examine the physical and technical foundation for recent progress in applied scanning probe techniques. The first volume came out in January 2004, the second to fourth volumes in early 2006 and the fifth to seventh volumes in late 2006. The field is progressing so fast that there is a need for a set of volumes every 12 to 18 months to capture latest developments. These volumes constitute a timely comprehensive overview of SPM applications. After introducing scanning probe microscopy, including sensor technology and tip characterization, chapters on use in various industrial applications are presented. Industrial applications span topographic and dynamical surface studies of thin-film semiconductors, polymers, paper, ceramics, and magnetic and biological materials. The chapters have been written by leading researchers and application scientists from all over the world and from various industries to provide a broader perspective.

Molecular Engineering of Nanosystems

Product Description
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.”
