Description
The self-assembled nanostructured materials described in this book offer a number of advantages over conventional material technologies
in a wide range of sectors. World leaders in the field of self-organisation of nanostructures review the current status of research and
development in the field, and give an account of the formation, properties, and self-organisation of semiconductor nanostructures. Chapters
on structural, electronic and optical properties, and devices based on self-organised nanostructures are also included.
Future research
work on self-assembled nanostructures will connect diverse areas of material science, physics, chemistry, electronics and optoelectronics.
This book will provide an excellent starting point for workers entering the field and a useful reference to the nanostructured materials
research community. It will be useful to any scientist who is involved in nanotechnology and those wishing to gain a view of what is
possible with modern fabrication technology.
