Description
Nanotechnology is no longer a merely social talking point and is beginning to affect the lives of everyone. Carbon nanotechnology as a
major shaper of new nanotechnologies has evolved into a truly interdisciplinary field, which encompasses chemistry, physics, biology,
medicine, materials science and engineering. This is a field in which a huge amount of literature has been generated within recent years,
and the number of publications is still increasing every year. Carbon Nanotechnology aims to provide a timely coverage of the recent
development in the field with updated reviews and remarks by world-renowned experts. Intended to be an exposition of cutting-edge research
and development rather than a kind of conference proceeding, Carbon Nanotechnology will be very useful not only to experienced scientists
and engineers, who wish to broaden their knowledge of the wide-ranging nanotechnology and/or to develop practical devices, but also to
graduate and senior undergraduate students who look to make their mark in this field of the future.
Audience
Scientists, Engineers, Graduate and Senior Undergraduate Students and Libraries.
