| ADVANCED NANOMEDICINE & NANOBIOTECHNOLOGY [Viroj Wiwanitkit] This book focuses on the nanomedicine and nanobiotechnology, a new scientific area. It specifically covers the clinical aspects, scientific aspects, and laboratory aspects relating to these new scientific views. It presents summative data from both nanomedicine and nanobiotechnology scientific community as well as additional metanalysis for important topics. This work is useful for medical personnel, scientists and practitioners who are not familiar to the new techniques. { September 2008; HB, £59.50, 1604564350:9781604564358 , Nova Science Publishers } |
| FOCUS ON NANOMATERIALS RESEARCH [B M Caruta (ed)] Nanotechnology is a 'catch-all' description of activities at the level of atoms and molecules that have applications in the real world. A nanometre is a billionth of a meter, about 1/80,000 of the diameter of a human hair, or 10 times the diameter of a hydrogen atom. Nanotechnology is now used in precision engineering, new materials development as well as in electronics; electromechanical systems as well as mainstream biomedical applications in areas such as gene therapy, drug delivery and novel drug discovery techniques. This book presents the latest research in this frontier field. { 284pp, 180x260mm, June 2006; HB, £85.99, 1594548978:9781594548970 , Nova Science Publishers } |
| FOCUS ON NANOTUBE RESEARCH [Delores A Martin (ed)] A novel way of arranging the atomic structure of a substance so that it can be made thousands of times stronger than in its native state. Often used to make duranium a further ten thousand times stronger. Thus, a lump of duranium can be made over ten million times stronger than the equivalent block of titanium. A one dimensional fullerene (a convex cage of atoms with only hexagonal and/ or pentagonal faces) with a cylindrical shape. Carbon nanotubes discovered in 1991 by Sumio Iijima resemble rolled up graphite, although they can not really be made that way. Depending on the direction that the tubes appear to have been rolled (quantified by the 'chiral vector'), they are known to act as conductors or semiconductors. Nanotubes are a proving to be useful as molecular components for nanotechnology. This book assembles and presents new and important research in the field. { 134pp, 180x260mm, December 2006; HB, £85.99, 159454851X:9781594548512 , Nova Science Publishers } |
| FRONTIERS IN QUANTUM DOTS RESEARCH [Marco L Voronin (ed)] A quantum dot is a particle of matter so small that the addition or removal of an electron changes its properties in some useful way. All atoms are quantum dots, but multi-molecular combinations can have this characteristic. In biochemistry, quantum dots are called redox groups. In nanotechnology, they are called quantum bits or qubits. Quantum dots typically have dimensions measured in nanometers, where one manometer is 10-9 meter or a millionth of a millimetre. The fields of biology, chemistry, computer science, and electronics are all of interest to researchers in nanotechnology. Other applications of quantum dots include nanomachines, neural networks, and high-density memory or storage media. Research is being carried out on nano-crystals, self-assembled dots, and gated structures. This book presents leading-edge research from around the world. { 110pp, 180x260mm, September 2007; HB, £59.50, 1600210570:9781600210570 , Nova Science Publishers } |

| SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY OF CHEMIRESISTOR GAS SENSORS [Dinesh K Aswal & Shiv K Gupta (eds)] Gas sensor technology has advanced remarkably during past few decades and has become one of the indispensable technologies for modern society. Varieties of gas sensors are commercially available and, using innovative ideas, efforts are being made to develop gas sensors of next generation having very small size with very low power consumption. The ultimate model for this is probably given by sensory organs of our own body, which are implanted finely and work well with a very modest amount of energy. In order to achieve this goal, it is essential that various aspects of gas sensors are seriously considered. These include understanding of gas sensing mechanisms, development of new materials and methods to synthesise them into selective sensors, innovations in nanostructured materials, measurement methods, microfabrication of sensors, exploring intelligent sensing system, etc. This book examines these issues pertaining to chemiresistive gas sensors. { 380pp, 180x260mm, September 2007; HB, £59.50, 1600215149:9781600215148 , Nova Science Publishers } |
| SCIENCE OF NANOTECHNOLOGY : An Introductory Text [Luanne Tilstra et al] Nanotechnology is a "catch-all" description of activities at the level of atoms and molecules that have applications in the real world. A nanometre is a billionth of a meter, about 1/80,000 of the diameter of a human hair, or 10 times the diameter of a hydrogen atom. Nanotechnology is now used in precision engineering, such as the fabrication of devices within that size range in electronics and electromechanical systems, and in new materials development as well as in mainstream biomedical applications in areas such as gene therapy, drug delivery and novel drug discovery techniques. It is a highly-multidisciplinary field, drawing from fields such as applied physics, materials science, interface and colloid science, device physics, supramolecular chemistry, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. The text, written by a multidisciplinary team of chemists, physicists and a mathematician, explores the basic science of nanoparticles, discussing the chemical, mechanical, magnetic, optical and geometric properties of nanoparticles and nanotubes. Exercises and activities for nanotechnology are included. The text is written for an undergraduate sophomore-level audience in order to bring introductory notions of nanotechnology as early as possible in the undergraduate curriculum. Only a background of freshman mathematics, chemistry and physics is needed. The text was written through an NSF grant (No. DMR-0304487) as part of the NSF Nanotechnology in Undergraduate Education program. { 177pp, 180x260mm, March 2008; HB, £59.50, 1600214665:9781600214660 , Nova Science Publishers } |
