Nanomaterials: New Research Developments

Product Description
Nanomaterials is the study of how materials behave when their dimensions are reduced to the nanoscale. It can also refer to the materials themselves that are used in nanotechnology. Materials reduced to the nanoscale can suddenly show very different properties compared to what they exhibit on a macroscale, enabling unique applications. For instance, opaque substances become transparent (copper); inert materials become catalysts (platinum); stable materials turn combustible (aluminum); solids turn into liquids at room temperature (gold); insulators become conductors (silicon). Materials such as gold, which is chemically inert at normal scales, can serve as a potent chemical catalyst at nanoscales. Much of the fascination with nanotechnology stems from these unique quantum and surface phenomena that matter exhibits at the nanoscale. This book presents the latest research from around the globe.

Nanotechnology Research Developments

Product Description
Nanotechnology is a ‘catch-all’ description of activities at the level of atoms and molecules that have applications in the real world. A nanometer is a billionth of a meter, about 1/80,000 of the diameter of a human hair, or 10 times the diameter of a hydrogen atom. Nanotechnology is now used in precision engineering, new materials development as well as in electronics; electromechanical systems as well as mainstream biomedical applications in areas such as gene therapy, drug delivery and novel drug discovery techniques. This book presents new and important breakthroughs in the field from around the world.

Nanotechnology: Engineering with Atoms and Molecules

Product Description
This TRN story bundle gives you an overview of today’s nanotechnology research, and in-depth explanations of important advances.

Nanotechnology research focuses on finding ways to use the unusual electrical and optical properties of tubes and wires only dozens of atoms wide, and is also aimed at using individual molecules as device components.

The Nanotechnology bundle includes a brief tour of recent developments that makes connections among key issues. It also includes the text of 24 in-depth TRN stories about key nanotechnology research projects, and 10 related images.

The bundle is organized into three major categories: nanotubes and nanowires, molecular technology and nano materials. Story subjects range from nanotube thermometers to DNA motors to molecular memory.

Technology Research News is an independent publisher and news service dedicated to covering technology research developments in university, corporate and government labs.
