"Ever since Richard Feynman gave his classic talkin 1959, ‘There Is Plenty of Room at the Bottom,’there has been a steadily increasing buzz inmanipulating matter at the atomic scale--nan-otechnology. This updated work (First ed., 2008)takes the revolutionary concepts and techniquesthat have traditionally been fodder for graduatestudy and makes them accessible for all. Coveringsubjects ranging from materials science tomechanics and biotechnology to photonics, [theauthors] deftly introduce the reader to each topicand quickly explain why it is important on thenanoscale. An exciting feature is the ‘back-of-the-envelope’ examples, where the reader is walkedthrough ‘quick and dirty’ calculations to illustrateand understand (mathematically) the complexconcepts discussed. The end of each chapterincludes traditional problem sets and shortanswer questions to test understanding. While nota comprehensive text in any specific area ofnanoscale science or engineering, this outstand-ing introduction to the broad field of nanotech-nology provides a solid foundation for furtherstudy.”“Summing Up: Highly recommended … "
—N. M Fahrenkopf, University at Albany, in CHOICE, 2011

Nanoscale Physics forMaterials ScienceTakaaki Tsurumi, Hiroyuki Hirayama,Martin Vachax, and Tomoyasu TaniyamaTokyo Institute of Technology, Japan
Although there are many books available on thepreparation, properties, and characterization ofnanomaterials, few provide an interdisciplinaryaccount of the physical phenomena that governthe novel properties of nanomaterials.Addressing this shortfall, Nanoscale Physics forMaterials Science covers fundamental cross-dis-ciplinary concepts in materials science and engi-neering. It presents a comprehensive descriptionof the physical phenomena and changes thatcan be expected when macroscopically sizedmaterials are reduced to the nanometer level.
The text is divided according to physical phe-nomena and interactions. After reviewing thenecessary theoretical background, the authorsaddress the electrical, optical, and magneticproperties as functions of size and distance. Theydiscuss the energy spectrum, the chargingeffect, tunneling phenomena, electronicallyinduced stable nanostructures, absorption andscattering, electromagnetic interactions, mag-netism, ferromagnetic domain-wall-related phe-nomena, and spin transport in magnetic nanos-tructures. Problem sets are included at the endof each chapter.
Providing an excellent treatment of physicalphenomena not covered in similar books, thistext explores the electrical, optical, and magnet-ic properties of materials at the nanoscale level.It delves into the dramatic physical changes thatoccur on scales where the quantum nature ofobjects starts dominating their properties.
• Links physical phenomena with recent scientific and technological developments
• Takes a unified approach to materials science,rather than focusing on inorganic, organic,semiconductor, ceramic, and metallurgicalmaterials separately
• Presents an overview of quantum mechanicsand the band structure of solids
• Follows the changes in physical propertiesfrom macroscale to atomic levels
• Describes the physical phenomena occurringat the nanoscale
• Includes homework problems at the end ofeach chapter

Optics of NanomaterialsVladimir I. GavrilenkoNorfolk State University, Virginia, USA
“Vladimir Gavrilenko has developed an extremelyuseful book for scientists who are interested in therapidly developing field of nanomaterials withemphasis on the optical properties of these mate-rials. Of particular importance is that the bookcovers many different kinds of optical properties(linear and nonlinear, coherent and incoherent),and many different kinds of materials (carbonand silicon-based, metals, semiconductors, andbiological nanomaterials). For each topic there isa careful discussion of fundamental theory as wellas specific applications that have proven impor-tant to the development of the field. There arealso extensive citations to recent papers.”
—Prof. George C. Schatz, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, USA
While the chemistry, physics, and optical proper-ties of simple atoms and molecules are quite wellunderstood, this book demonstrates that there ismuch to be learned about the optics of nanoma-terials. Through comparative analysis of the size-dependent optical response from nanomaterials,it is shown that although strides have been madein computational chemistry and physics, bridginglength scales from nano to macro remains amajor challenge. Organic, molecular, polymer,and biological systems are shown to be potentiallyuseful models for assembly. Our progress inunderstanding the optical properties of biologicalnanomaterials is an important driving force for avariety of applications.

This book examines single-electron circuits as anintroduction to the rapidly expanding field of nano-electronics. It discusses both the analysis and syn-thesis of circuits with the nanoelectronic metallicsingle-electron tunneling (SET) junction device. Thebasic physical phenomena under consideration arethe quantum mechanical tunneling of electronsthrough a small insulating gap between two metalleads, the Coulomb blockade and Coulomb oscilla-tions — the last two resulting from the quantizationof charge. The author employs an unconventionalapproach in explaining the operation and design ofsingle-electron circuits.

This book describes a wide range of molecularmotors, ranging from chemical motors to biologicalmotors, in a manner that updates, or reviews, bothclassification of the type of motor and the groupinginto families. Many techniques have evolved tostudy and characterise molecular motors at the sin-gle-molecule level (e.g. use of molecular tweezerdevices for single-molecule studies) and the readeris introduced to the concepts and benefits of eachtechnique. In addition, the book looks at structuralinformation and how this helps to understand func-tion and finally, how some of these motors arebeing used or may be used in the future as part ofa synthetic biology approach to building devicesand sensors.
