Handbook of Nanoscience, Engineering, and Technology, Second Edition (The Electrical Engineering Handbook Series)

Buy
The first edition of the Handbook of Nanoscience, Engineering, and Technology was published in early 2003, reflecting many of the nanoscience possibilities envisioned by Richard Feynman in his 1959 address, “There is Plenty of Room at the Bottom.” In his address, Feynman speculated about what might be on the molecular scale, and challenged the technical community “to find ways of manipulating and controlling things on a small scale.” Inspired by the vision of Feynman, nanoscience is today defined as the study of material manipulation and control at the molecular scale, that is, a spatial scale of the order of a few hundred angstroms, less than one-thousandth of the width of a human hair. The extraordinary feature of nanoscience is that it allows for the tailoring and combining of the physical, biological, and engineering properties of matter at a very low level of nature’s architectural building blocks. Critical to progress in nanoscience has been the stunning new achievements in fabrication, chemical processing, and nano resolution tool development in the last five decades, driven in large part by the microelectronics revolution. These developments today allow for molecular level tailoring and control of materials not heretofore possible except through naturally occurring atomic processes.

Over 40 years later, driven by federal executive orders of Presidents W.J. Clinton and G.W. Bush, and a recently enacted Twenty-First Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act, the visionary challenge put forth by Feynman in 1959 is well on its way to becoming a reality. As a testimonial to this reality, the first edition of the Handbook included broad categories of innovative nanoscience, engineering, and technology that was emerging in the 2003 timeframe. The present 2007 second edition extends the portfolio of innovative nano areas further, including additional chapters on textiles, nanomanufacturing, spintronics, molecular electronics, aspects of bionanotechnology, and nanoparticles for drug delivery; as well, this edition updates select chapters which appeared in the first edition.
