Nanostructures

Nanostructured materials are materials with a microstructure that is typically less than 10 nanometers in length. The properties of nanostructured materials deviate from those of single crystals and glasses with the same average chemical composition. This deviation results from the reduced size and/or dimensionality of the nanometer-sized crystallites as well as from the numerous interfaces between adjacent crystallites. Nanostructures covers the main concepts and fundamentals of nanoscience emphasizing characteristics and properties of numerous nanostructures. This book will be an important reference source for early-career researchers and practicing materials scientists and engineers seeking a focused overview of the science of nanostructures and nanostructured systems, and their industrial applications. Presents an accessible overview of the science behind, and industrial uses of, nanostructures, giving materials scientists and engineers an understanding of how using nanostructures may increase material performanceIncludes a thorough theoretical explanation of the science of nanostructures in order to help readers explore how they could best be utilized in practiceFeatures an analysis of different nanostructured systems, explaining their properties and industrial applications INDICE: Chapter 1 Basic Concepts and Principles  Fabio Ruiz Simões and Humberto Hissashi Takeda Chapter 2 Supramolecular Systems Marli Leite de Moraes and Luciano Caseli Chapter 3 Electrochemical Synthesis of Nanotructured Materials  Francisco Trivinho-Strixino, Janaina Soares Santos and Mariana de Souza Sikora Chapter 4 Nanostructured Films: The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) And Layer-by-Layer (LBL) Techniques Rafael Furlan de Oliveira, Anerise de Barros and Marystela Ferreira Chapter 5 Low-Dimensional Systems: Nanoparticles  Celina Massumi Miyazaki and Antonio Riul Junior Chapter 6 Magnetic Nanoparticles Maria Aparecida Godoy Soler and Leonardo Giordano Paterno Chapter 7 Nanocomposites of Polymer Matrices and Lamellar Clays Fabio Roberto Passador, Adhemar Collà Ruvolo Filho and Luiz Antonio Pessan Chapter 8 Mathematical Fundamentals of Nanotechnology Roberto Marchiori Chapter9 Carbon-based Nanomaterials Jose R.
