Full Description

The Handbook of Nanotechnology series provides a professional reference in nanotechnology, offering readers a combination of tutorial material and review of the state of the art.

This initial volume focuses on modeling and simulation at the nanoscale.

The eight substantive chapters of this volume-entitled Nanometer Structures: Theory, Modeling and Simulation-cover nanostructured thin films, photonic bandgap structures, quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, atomistic techniques, nanomechanics, nanofluidics, and quantum information processing.

Modeling and simulation research on these topics has acquired a sufficient degree of maturity as to merit inclusion.

While the intent is to serve as a reference source for expert researchers, there is sufficient content for novice researchers as well.

The level of presentation in each chapter assumes a fundamental background at the level of an engineering or science graduate.
