When structures are made small enough, they can take on interesting, useful and controllable properties - nanoscience is the study of structures and materials on the scale of nanometers (one billionth of a meter). Nanoscience and its applications-oriented twin nanotechnology are now well-established features of a broad technical and commercial landscape. Scientists and engineers from disciplines including physics, chemistry, biology and materials science use nanoscience principles for advanced applications in energy, medicine, information storage, computing and many types of materials manufacturing. Whilst definitions of these terms may vary, this is essentially a subject area dealing with properties that only emerge when materials are tailored over sub-micron dimensions by different synthetic approaches. Building upon the two successful previous editions, this substantially updated comprehensive work continues to cover the full spectrum of relevant disciplines including material sciences, chemistry, optics, physics and the life sciences. It includes the best of the previous edition and adds a significant amount of new material, once again written and edited by an outstanding team of international experts. Comprehensive Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 3rd Edition is a go-to reliable resource with detailed and in-depth treatments of each topic. De-mystifying terminology, and contextualizing newer developments within a diverse and fast-moving field, it empowers researchers across many disciplines to understand the information they need quickly and with confidence.

Über Autor(innen)

Andrews, David
David L. Andrews is Emeritus Professor of Chemical Physics at the University of East Anglia, UK. His research, covering a wide range of topics in spectroscopy, optics, photonics, and quantum science, has produced over four hundred scientific papers, nearly all of them applying the tools of molecular quantum electrodynamics. As an author and editor, he has already published more than twenty books, including Lasers in Chemistry, Resonance Energy Transfer, Structured Light and its Applications, Optical Nanomanipulation, and an Introduction to Photon Science and Technology. David has organized more than a hundred international conferences, both in Europe and North America, including several now well-established series: Complex Light and Optical Forces at Photonics West, Nanophotonics at Photonics Europe, and several iterations of the International Conference on Optical Angular Momentum. He is an awardee of the RSC Horizon Prize in 2022 and the IOP Thomas Young Award in 2023. David is a Fellow of SPIE – the international society for optics and photonics; also Optica; the Institute of Physics; and the Royal Society of Chemistry. He served as elected President of SPIE in 2021.
