Every day we use switches to turn electric appliances on and off and no computer could function without them. Molecular switches work in the same way, changing from state one to another depending on environmental influences. However, as opposed to normal switches, molecular switches are extremely tiny and their application in nanotechnology, biomedicine and computer chip design opens up whole new horizons.
In this manual, the editor and authors describe molecular switches made of catenanes and rotaxanes, dihydroazulenes, fulgides, liquid crystals and polypeptides. The spectrum of topics discussed ranges from chiroptical switches via multifunctional systems to molecular logic systems and biomolecular switches.
A wealth of information for chemists and materials scientists in industry and academia interested in one of the most innovative branches of their discipline.

From the Back Cover
Providing principles and applications this two-volume work brings you everything you need to know about molecular switches - a hot topic in the nanoworld. The major classes of molecular switches including catenanes, rotaxanes, azobenzenes together with polymer and biomolecular switching systems and DNA based switches are covered. Chemists, biochemists and materials scientists interested in one of the most innovative areas of their science will benefit greatly from reading the new edition of this highly acclaimed book.
From reviews of the first edition:
"This book will appeal most to organic chemists, because of the way new structures are introduced through their synthesis, but it will also
provide a useful introduction for other scientists, provided they are conversant with molecular structures." (Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry)
"... a comprehensive and up-to-date insight ..." (Chemistry & Industry)
