Book Description
Increasingly, novel optical and magnetic properties of nanoparticles and nanowires are finding rich opportunities in electronic, biological tagging, separation and sensing. This volume brings together a large and diverse group of international researchers to focus on the synthesis, processing, characterization and modeling of nanoparticles and nanowires and their potential use as 'nanoscale building blocks' for electronic, optical and biological applications. The compilation of papers reflects the drive to harness the understanding of isolated nanostructures, translating these insights into opportunities of engineered materials and devices. In addition to studies of individual nanostructures, the volume also explores how new collective properties emerge as nanoscale building blocks are assembled to produce extended structures. Experimental, theoretical and computational perspectives are offered. Topics include: magnetic nanostructures; metallic nanoparticles; metallic nanowires; magnetic and metallic nanostructures; semiconductor quantum dots; semiconductor dots and wires; nanobiological materials; and group-IV nanoparticles.

Kinetics-Driven Nanopatterning on Surfaces: Volume 849
Author: Materials Research Society. Meeting
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Nanopattern formation on surfaces is influenced by many processes involving kinetics, mechanics and thermodynamics. This volume presents recent advances in technology and in scientific understanding of nanopatterning in a variety of amaterials systems. A particular emphasis is on developments in surface nanopatterning as a result of kinetics. Various other factors, such as mechanical strain and particle-source collimation, are intimately coupled with the kinetics. The book covers self-assembly and various fabrication processes of nanostructures, the fundamental mechanisms of nanostructure formation, and related topics. The papers are a valuable source of reference for researchers entering the field of nanostructures formation on surfaces. In addition, several invited papers provide a critical literature assessment, which should also prove helpful to those new to the field.

Biological and Bioinspired Materials and Devices
Author: Materials Research Society. Meeting
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The special interest afforded biological and bioinspired materials and devices lies in the fact that many biological materials, as diverse as bone and teeth and spider silk, have highly refined and sophisticated platforms of structure that are well organized at hierarchical levels spanning nanoscale to microscale measures. There is absolutely strict and precise control of materials synthesis exerted by these natural systems, and vigorous study and advancement in the fields of biomineralization, molecular biology, and DNA technology, for instance, have brought increasing understanding of such control in ever expanding fashion. This knowledge has been quickly transferred into the design and development of synthetic materials that mimic their biological counterparts. In this context, an explosion in research in the past few years has centered on the identification and synthesis of 1) unique ceramics or composites for biomaterials, magnetic and optical use, 2) self-assembled biopolymeric systems for biomaterials and biosensor application, and 3) colloidal and amphiphilic systems for relevance in biomedicine, nanotechnology, and biosensor fabrication. Therefore, new nanocrystalline composites, nanofibers, biosteel fibers, novel biosensors, distinctive drug-delivery systems, exceptional tissue engineering scaffolds, exclusive molecular imprinting matrices, and innovative photonic crystals are suddenly available. Given this backdrop, the papers in this volume involve biology, medicine, engineering, physics, chemistry, and materials science. Topics include biomineralization and the structure and mechanical, magnetic, and optical properties of biominerals; implant materials for dental, maxillofacial, orthopaedic, urological, and ophthalmic applications; tissue adhesives and cements; material degradation and implant failure; organic modification of surfaces and their biocompatibility; tissue engineering with cells and scaffolding to generate extracellular matrices for tissue regeneration; emerging technologies in tissue engineering, including application of stem cells and gene therapy; in situ and ex situ characterization techniques and imaging of biomaterials; pharmaceutical crystallization and materials for drug and gene delivery; supramolecular and biological self assembly; and structure and dynamics of organic/inorganic interfaces.
