Water Droplets to Nanotechnology

Год издания: 0000
The ability of nanostructures to organize into complex arrangements leads to unique materials with valuable applications. Self-assembly is therefore a key concept for nanotechnology, but it can be quite a complex and difficult subject to approach. Water Droplets to Nanotechnology gives a simple and general overview of the different self-assembly processes which are at the basis of recent developments in nanotechnology. The book shows how simple phenomenon from everyday examples can become sophisticated tools for self-assembly and the fabrication of nanomaterials. By exploring the coffee stain and tears of wine phenomena, the first part looks at how the evaporation of a droplet of colloidal solution can be used in designing organized structures. This leads onto more complex systems such as templated porous materials, photonic crystals, colloidal nanocrystals and quasi-crystals through to bottom-up systems for designing hierarchal materials. By taking the reader on a journey from everyday life to the secrets of nanotechnology, the book is suitable for a non-specialist audience interested in self-assembly as well as the wider perspectives and latest developments of nanoscience.

Александр Староверов родился в Москве, до сорока лет занимался бизнесом, потом глубоко и своеобразно осознав мысль, что слово дороже денег, начал писать. Судя по отзывам читателей его романов, писать у него получается. Счастье, считает Александр, это когда получается! Что угодно получается, но особенно – найти в себе человека. Именно это является основной темой книг А. Староверова.
