The Great World of Nanotechnology Vol II

Abstract

The insertion of new and enhanced materials based on materials belonging to the Nano scale in the day-by-day has growth up in a silent way. In part, a number of works in the nanotechnology stemming of theoretical research using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and sophisticated simulation methods; another part is associated to the protected technologies associated to the military and patented nanomaterial and its process. In this sense, open access to recent aspects on the nanostructures application and properties can be reached in this book. Here, an interesting set of chapters gives opportunity of access texts that reach process and processing of nanostructures, applications of nanotechnology, advanced techniques to theoretical development. A broad set of nanostructures are here covered such as, nanocrystal, superficial nanograins, inner microstructures with nanograins, nanoaggregates, nanoshells, nanotubes, nanoflowers, nanoroad, nanosheets, Also, reveals new investigations areas as grainboundary of nanograins in ceramics and metals. A great number of software has been used as a tool of development of Science and Technologies for nanotechnology COMSOL Multiphysics 5.2. Phenomena and properties has been investigated by recent or classical techniques of materials characterization as Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Field Emission Gun Scanning Electron Microscopy (FEG-SEM) with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), Raman Scattering Spectroscopy (RSS), X ray diffraction (XRD), 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and Field Emission Gun Scanning Electron Microscopy (FEG-SEM). In this sense, collections of spectra from Mössbauer spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy and Infrared spectroscopy can be found. As a matter of fact, some chapter’s item can be seemed as specific protocols for synthesis, preparations and measurements in the nanotechnology.
