The future focus of nanotechnology will be on realizing new functions over greater scales. This book describes the creation of nano- and microscale structures and functions by controlling temperature, light, pressure, or carrier injections. It covers novel nano-integration technologies such as quantum-well devices possilbe by utilizing, for example, the self-organization of surface nanostructures and optically or pressure-induced phase transitions, micro machinesusing microstereolithography, as well as new techniques of laser spectroscopyand new computational methods for estimating atomic and electronic structuresand their functions on the nano- and microscales. Covers the major developments in nano- and micromaterials. Includes novel nano-integration technologies such as self-organization of surface nanostructures, quantum well structures, microlithography and micromachines. Provides methodic information on micro-laser spectroscopy and computational design of nano- and microstructures.
