Description
Carbon nanotubes have been studied extensively in relation to fullerenes, and together with fullerenes have opened a new science and technology
field on nano scale materials.
A whole range of issues from the preparation, structure, properties and observation of quantum effects
in carbon nanotubes in comparison with 0-D fullerenes are discussed.
In addition, complementary reviews on carbon nanoparticles
such as carbon nano-capsules, onion-like graphite particles and metal-coated fullerenes are covered.
This book aims to cover recent
research and development in this area, and so provide a convenient reference tool for all researchers in this field. It is also hoped
that this book can serve to stimulate future work on carbon nanotubes.
Audience
For materials scientists, chemists, physicists.
