Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in Security and Protection against CBRN Threats
Author: Plamen Petkov
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9402420185
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 473
Book Description
This book is based on the lectures and contributions of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on “Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in Security and Protection Against CBRN Threats” held in Sozopol, Bulgaria, September 2019. It gives a broad overview on this topic as it combines articles addressing the preparation and characterization of different nanoscaled materials (metals, oxides, glasses, polymers, carbon-based, etc.) in the form of nanowires, nanoparticles, nanocomposites, nanodots, thin films, etc. and contributions on their applications in diverse security and safety related fields. In addition, it presents an interdisciplinary approach drawing on the Nanoscience and Nanotechnology know-how of authors from Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, Materials Science and Biology. A further plus-point of the book, which represents the knowledge of experts from over 20 countries, is the combination of longer papers introducing the background on a certain topic, and brief contributions highlighting specific applications in different security areas.

Nanotechnology to Aid Chemical and Biological Defense
Author: Terri A. Camesano
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9401772185
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
This book presents research into chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) defense and environmental security, exploring practical implications of the research. Contributions from a diverse group of international civilian researchers present the latest work on nanotechnology problems in this area, looking at detection, protective technologies, decontamination and threats to environmental security due to bacteriophages and nanomaterials. Highlights include the potential of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) to characterize the nanoscale properties of microbial pathogens, the development of bacteriophage-based therapeutics, prophylactic and diagnostic preparations and their uses in different fields, such as medicine, veterinary, agriculture, food and water safety, amongst others. Readers may also consider an inexpensive bioassay suited for assessing chemical poisoning in the environment such as the presence of pesticides, sensors to detect ultra-trace quantities of the explosive Pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) using nanotubes and electrochemical sensors to simultaneously detect and reduce the explosive trinitrotoluene (TNT) to 2,4,6-triaminotoluene (TAT) in solution. This book shows how cooperative research among NATO countries and NATO partners can make a critical contribution to meeting the opportunities and challenges of nanotechnology problems relevant to chemical and biological defense needs. The papers presented here are representative of contributions made to the Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on September 22-26, 2014 in Antalya, Turkey, to address the NATO SPS Key Priority of Defense against CBRN Agents and Environmental Security.

Book Description
The approach of our book is to focus on nanoparticle characterization techniques. The chapter presented in this book mainly attempted the application aspect of production of nanoparticles and its characterization. We will be writing fifteen chapters; the first four chapters will provide the Basics of Nanotechnology including biosafety and ethical concern with nanotechnology and the remaining eleven chapters will provide the entire techniques of nanoparticle characterization including UV-VIS Spectroscopy, FTIR, Particle size analyzer, ultra-sonicator, ultra centrifuge, TEM, SEM, ICPMS, XRD, AFM and Lithographic technique. The ultimate purpose of this book is to equip the reader with comprehensive knowledge in Nanotechnology with reference to basic as well as applied aspects. It contains pre-digested information on nanotechnology for good understanding, assimilation and reproducibility. The academic level of the book would be from undergraduate to research scholars/scientific persons/technicians.

Nanoelectronic Devices for Hardware and Software Security
Author: Arun Kumar Singh
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000464989
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Nanoelectronic Devices for Hardware and Software Security has comprehensive coverage of the principles, basic concepts, structure, modeling, practices, and circuit applications of nanoelectronics in hardware/software security. It also covers the future research directions in this domain. In this evolving era, nanotechnology is converting semiconductor devices dimensions from micron technology to nanotechnology. Nanoelectronics would be the key enabler for innovation in nanoscale devices, circuits, and systems. The motive for this research book is to provide relevant theoretical frameworks that include device physics, modeling, circuit design, and the latest developments in experimental fabrication in the field of nanotechnology for hardware/software security. There are numerous challenges in the development of models for nanoscale devices (e.g., FinFET, gate-all-around devices, TFET, etc.), short channel effects, fringing effects, high leakage current, and power dissipation, among others. This book will help to identify areas where there are challenges and apply nanodevice and circuit techniques to address hardware/software security issues.
