SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Nanotechnology: Understanding Small Systems provides a treatment of the world's fastest-growing field. Its multidisciplinary nature - which draws from physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering - has the inherent challenge of teaching students from many backgrounds." "Here you will find a systems-based approach, demonstrating how an understanding of the various areas underlying nanotechnology come together to create systems with unique functions and characteristics. Packed with examples, homework problems, and more than 150 illustrations, this is a book aimed to both instruct and inspire
